How did evil get “power”Simple and complex, the tantrum throwing sky dieitty conditional upon surrender of control to external and other than self. That isn't power it's neediness that one dare not trigger if they are subject to. If such a "god" we're so all right and complete what would he need you or your compliance for? He would be it and all and call it a day. The "man" dieity is the same, who else would need all of everything except the neediest of the neediest. That why the world is run by psychopathic bottomless greed and evil moronic criminals. Those that just want to be left alone and those that will not leave others alone. Those that want power shouldn't have it and those that are independent and complete have it but not any need to excercise it. Why would they seek completion through others when they are and can complete themselves by themselves and for themselves? The problem is obvious of the needy who can't stay out of the individuals affairs of others or even others countries, societies, beliefs and practices a prime example going on in the Middle East now. I should stop posting for now as there are other things I should do and can't devote adequate efforts . But yes the world is upside down and the shrillest of tantrum throwers are in illusions of "power" counter them.
