Point of view: why there is so much bad in the world and what is good about it

Why is there evil in the world, they asked me. And I, as always, thought ... But really, why?

It is probably the reason for all our victories, our growth and our achievements - a thought came to my mind ... A strange thought came to my mind. But since she has already come, I will have to tinker with her. So ... We think.

If evil were unnecessary, it would have been eradicated long ago in millions of years. Everything that nature does not need, it levels, and in the end - rejects. The tail fell off, the thick hair stopped growing. The size of the eyes, claws of ears, wings - everything either improves over time, or is rejected for uselessness.

And what about evil? After all, it has been with us for so long and has not gone anywhere? You can talk about demons, curses of various kinds, Lucifer and his deputies on earth. But this will be a conversation in which many will not want to take any part, since they do not believe in such nonsense. So I'll go the other way.

Evil has always been, is, and will be. And all because without it nothing can exist. I would even suggest that the carriers of evil here, on our planet, are on the most important mission - to help us grow and see with their help what we would never have seen otherwise. What exactly? In its simplest form, it is good. It's not there, if you think about it. Whatever good does not exist. It, together with mercy and humanity, is born only on the crest of evil, as a response, as a confrontation, as a fortress built in response to an attack, an attack, a siege ...

Any war, any crime against nature and people is evil. But the result is the birth of those who rise above themselves, above pettiness, cowardice, and routine, discovering incredible abilities, opportunities and skills. We call them heroes. But - their appearance is accompanied by evil, horror, chaos, misfortunes, which are sown by the conductors of evil. Yes, people are dying, yes, tears are falling, yes, they are sowing grief and misfortune. Yes, tragedies in families and communities. That's right. But, judging by the fact that it has always been this way and nothing changes, it is necessary to find some reasonable explanation for this phenomenon. So I'm trying.

Either we decide that what is happening is nonsense and idiocy that defies understanding, a punishment from heaven, karma, or we decide that evil is given to organize a rebuff to it, and the birth of good as a response. Perhaps you have better ideas. This one is mine.

How many battles for nonsense, idea, religious postulates, gold, land? .. How many victims, how many losses, how much blood, how much sorrow? .. But, at the same time, look at what heights of the human spirit's rise, what self-sacrifices people rose, standing up to fight evil. We know their names over the centuries and even millennia. The memory of their heroism, flying through the years, fills our souls with light, calls to heroism, teaches goodness and mercy. And we learn, we absorb, although we can stay away from these people and events for centuries and never witness them.

I would like to believe that it is evil with us not by chance, and not in vain. I would like to hope that we, people, each time rising above it, become taller, smarter, more humane, cleaner, better, closer to the light. That in response to it we are always ready to oppose something unusually touching, new, gentle, quivering, touching the most delicate strings of the soul. And what we have created at such moments becomes a pedestal, rising to which, we grow up, grow, learn, grow wiser and develop, striving into the future, where we are awaited ... new evil and - a new endless struggle with it. Fight for the eternal right to win and punish, never being able to eradicate it to the end. Or maybe evil will disappear someday, as the era of love and universal mercy will come. And it will simply lose its meaning, lose its purpose.

Or maybe it isn't. But if I'm wrong, then there must be some other explanation of why it is still with us, why it is constantly being examined and checked for strength, for lice, for humanity and humanity ... every hour, every day, every year ... and forever and ever ...

I am happy to listen to alternative points of view on why or why it is with us, and whether there are any thoughts about whether evil can be eradicated. And if so, when? And How?
