Quote by: MerlinsByte What is evil? What is sin? Does evil and sin affect our entire universe? It is my finding that sin affects every aspect of our universe and reality.

So are you saying that the Andromeda galaxy has sinned?

I delineate sin as any destructive emotion, thought or action. When, in the Noah story, God destroyed the world, be it an actual event, or written in parable, the implication and moral of the story remains true. I feel that this story was given credence and length because it illustrated that if god had not destroyed the earth (in reality or in parable) the entire earth would become evil and sinful. If the earth had no righteous (note one) sentient beings, then god’s creation and our universe would cease to exist or be destroyed by the sin or destructive force of sin. This is the reason we have so many lessons in the bible that teaches the fetid nature of sin. It is the only thing that can destroy our universe. Of course Jesus and love is the reverse of sin and will be what ultimately saves the earth and our universe from Satan/sin/evil.

I find it interesting that sin is defined as a destructive emotion. So was god sinning when he destroyed the earth? And if not, why not?

True evil it seems does not exist in our temporal universe. By true evil I imply spiritual evil that has a destructive agenda to destroy gods creation, some may entitle this spirit evil the devil Satan etc. While it evil exists as ethereal force and is dangerous it may not manifest completely in our universe, but this will change in the future. Mental illness, sub par brain functioning and greed is the cause for all other evil.

But according to Christians and their stories the largest evil of all would have to be god. All other supernatural constructs pale in comparison to the claimed destruction that is also claimed to have been performed by god.

Note one……..righteous …. Without sin or striving to be without sin.

So god is not righteous.
