The concept of good and evil, positive and negative

by johalin

People tend, erroneously, to think of evil and good as equivalent to black and white, or bright and dark, or light and shade, as though they were two sides of the same elemental coin, say the beauty and love of metachemical free soma vis-vis the ugliness and hate of metachemical bound psyche, the absolute (noumenal) female actuality of metachemistry (corresponding elementally to fire), so that the positive aspect of the duality is identified with good, and the negative aspect thereof with evil. Wrong!

Applied to the airy element of metaphysics, truth and joy, corresponding on whatever evolutionary level to God the Father and Heaven the Holy Soul, would equate with good, and illusion and woe, corresponding on whatever evolutionary level to the Son of God and the Holy Spirit of Heaven, would equate, by contrast, with evil.

But would Christians accept as gospel that they have a tradition of worshipping evil in the form of the Son of God and the Holy Spirit of Heaven, i.e., the bound soma of metaphysics which in simple black and white terms would equate with the latter, i.e., with what is dark, negative, vicious, etc. I rather doubt it! Even if the other elements, like chemistry and physics, corresponding to water and earth (vegetation), didn't also expose, when analyzed in such fashion, the absurdity of such a theory or approach to good and evil, metaphysics and even metachemistry should suffice to do so; though in the latter case the discrepancy would be somewhat less obvious if only because traditional or conventional religion is less disposed to dealing with terms equivalent to the above (God the Father, etc.) like Devil and Mother and Hell the Clear Spirit, never mind the Daughter of the Devil and the Clear Soul of Hell.

For the idea that beauty and love, being positive, must be good would be difficult for an average person to disprove even if he or she were not also of the opinion that ugliness and hate, the other side of the metachemical coin, were patently evil. In reality, however, ugliness and hate are not evil but that which, appertaining to metachemical bound psyche, corresponds to crime as something conditioned by the evil of free metachemical soma, i.e. beauty and love, as the negative converse of a positive precondition, soma preceding and predominating over psyche on
3:1 basis in the noumenal absolutism of this particular female element.

Therefore evil precedes and predominates, in metachemistry, over crime, as beauty and love over ugliness and hate
