See No Evil

If I were to see no evil, then life would be barren. If I were to see no evil, then what would be the need for change? If I were to see no evil - would I not know that I am good? If I were to see no evil, I am standing in the presence of God. If I were to see no evil - I am dead of this world and passed on into Heaven.

You are absolutely right. How could we do any comparative analysis without having something to compare it to. When you hear the sound of two hands clapping, what about only one? Jim Horn
