God and Satan: A matter of perception

The world is a polarized entity, no doubt. There is always an opposite of everything. For instance, Good has its opposite evil, male has its opposite female, and heaven has hell on the opposing side, giving contrasts receiving. The lists are endless!

Interestingly what might be seen as good to one person might be the opposite to the other. It’s all subjected to perception.

This takes us to the discourse: God and Satan

We have been taught from time immemorial that God is associated with good and Satan, with evil. Consequently, we are told there is God simply because there lies an opposition: Satan. To many religious folks, there is a need to be in relationship with God because there is always an opposer; the devil. We have been taught how to be good to depict the ‘’god’’ in us to preclude ourselves from evil, which is associated with the D-evil(Devil or Satan).

Consider these: GOD is epitomized as Goodness Onto Divinity and SATAN has the identity of Serving Adversity To All Nations (Adversity is the same as evil in this context).

The questions come into mind: ‘’what’s good and what’s evil’’? The answers are predicated on what the society—starting from the home front to the society at large----see as positively accepted values for peaceful co-existence and unacceptable vices that engender mishaps among people. Interestingly, what might be of positively accepted values could be that catalyst for mishaps that could truncate peaceful co-existence and what might be termed as ‘’evil’’ could be instrumental for unity. The killing of terrorists to foster national security and the ‘’enormous hospitality’’ shown to all immigrating peoples by nationals at the expense of their lives and property are instances of the contradicting workings of Good and Evil.

Come to think of it, if the word EVIL is reversed, LIVE results. Therefore, what if EVIL is needed for the earth to be A-LIVE and GOODNESS is a term that has same frequency as EVIL in order to keep the earth for a purposeful cause of divine existence? What if EVIL and GOODNESS possess the same energy only to be differentiated by perception as programmed by society? What if GOD is SATAN in disguise or SATAN is GOD in illuminated terms?

One might assert that the d-EVIL is the LIVE giver to the world and Goodness ‘’opposingly’’ illuminates this for the earth to dwell in divinity

In closing, GOD and SATAN is a matter of perception
