Not good vs. evil

Next

Is there good and evil? Yes, in a sense, but the salient question is not whether real good or evil exist. That's not quite it. The question is instead about creation and destruction. Considering the division between creation and destruction actually also provides a unitive answer. Creation and destruction are conjoined, but creation is ultimately the stronger at the beginning and at end at the new beginning. Even destruction is a creative act, & without prior creation, destruction is not possible. Creativity is the greater force. So in the end, what everything emerges from and goes back to is a singular kernel of creation over destruction. They are not precisely in balance. If they were, there would simply be nothing. So good/creation is always the stronger and is inherently the more fundamental force.
