“"The harvest is plentiful but the workers are few
I met this older man at a bus terminus one day. He was dressed in a plain white shirt, and light blue pants. A voice in my head said "Talk to this guy"
So I sat down next to him and said hello.
He then asked me, how my day was.
I didn't really want to say good, because that simply was not true.
So I said neither good or bad.
He smiled at me and told me the strangest thing.
Look around you he said, look at these people. All they can think is what's good or evil.
That's their problem he said, that's their war. It's just positives and negatives for them.
Then I asked him what his name was.
He said, James.
Then he stood up because his bus had arrived.
Then just before he left he said one last thing.
In the end, they do it to themselves.
Labeling creation good and evil is a bad habit called eating from the tree of the knowledge of Good and Evil. Our opinion does not make anything good or evil - it just wastes time. God calls us to love, which the double edged sword that cuts across dualism. Christ was not dualistic, but Christians, especially of the fundamentalist ilk lean that way.
