When I was a teenager, I went to church, and almost every ‘Christian’ there was a complete asshole. What makes it worse is that they try to justify it. This honestly made me think that if God and Satan were real, I’d want to know Lucifer’s story. Maybe he’s not actually ‘evil.’
I like the approach of - there is no tue good or evil, but acts of nature. Life feeds on life.
A head monk asks his disciples to describe a pitcher of water without calling it a pitcher of water. Some monks say what it isn’t. Some monks describe what it can do at length. One monk says nothing, instead, he simply kicks the pitcher over with his foot; he is declared the winner.
And on death and decay.
