Good vs Evil

In my existence, I used to think that there were two kinds of forces. Good and Evil. It wasn't until I fell in love with Frollo and realized that even "evil" people are capable of love, and "good" people are capable of doing evil. For instance, a man who swears constantly, has committed multiple crimes is still a good person, they just did bad things.  Now a true evil person would've had to commit wrong doing during the entire part of their lives, including child hood, not feel compassion, unconditional love, and regret. How many people do you know that have been so "evil" that they feel nothing throughout their entire life.

Our child hood is our innocence, so even in "evil" souls, there's still their past, a past where there too was good. Someone may have committed evil, but that doesn't deem them as a evil person. To me, a evil person has felt no love towards others, doesn't take revenge but commits murder because he/she can. An evil person has no emotion towards anything, regret or any of that such. Committing evil is much different than being evil, you'd have to be soulless and lack of emotion throughout childhood (regardless of events and teachings) all the way up to your life now.

It's easy to hate someone because they did something evil, vs, accepting that they did wrong and forgiving them for it. It takes ultimate love to forgive someone who has committed evil, and when I mean evil, I mean something cold, heartless, inhumane, and sinister. This is something we often over look, because we find it easier to hate than to love. The question is, how can you love someone who committed murder? Well it's hard and nearly next to impossible for the common human, but a dog or cat who knows nothing but of unconditional love knows. We have overindulged ourselves with judgment that we often forget, that there are reasons behind everything. To step back and accept that "wow, he/she made a mistake" is exceedingly difficult for anyone.

I admit, sometimes I cannot bear the fact of Frollo's wrong doings, but that was then, and now is now. I firmly believe in redemption, and our Lord loves us all regardless. It is hard to imagine, and the reason why God has not shown himself is because we cannot handle the truth. Love is shattered in this world, and our corrupt society has engulfed us all into a terrifying storm. We often over look that everyone is deserving of love.

On the contrary to evil is Good. Now I have met some people who claim to be "pure" and "righteous" who have committed the most evil doing of them all. I'm not saying they are evil, nor am I saying that people who have done evil are evil themselves. What I am saying is that ANYONE is capable of ANYTHING.

Here are some examples of evil doings committed by "good" people.
Bullying someone to suicide, because they feel what the person is doing is wrong
Killing someone, to rid of their "evil"
Sending death threats to someone because of their beliefs
doing something horrendous because "it said so in the bible" like murdering someone from the LGBT community.

Religion and believing in God/Goddess/whatever does not make you righteous in any way, it's how you treat his/her/whatever's creations. To go around saying someone is going to "Burn in Hell" because it goes against their religion isn't right and it can be very insulting and be considered bullying. Respect all things around you, you don't know their stories, so don't judge.

That person who has the Atheist tattoos? He's probably the nicest guy around, and least judgmental. I don't call myself a Christian. I am a spiritualist who also believes in rationality. I'll probably burn in Hell for writing this (according to some, not me)

On a side note, praying away problems doesn't always work, prayer is for guidance. Also take responsibility for your own actions, don't ask forgiveness from God, forgive the person, and try to forgive yourself, hard? yes, but it's more real
