Good and Evil are labels.

Notice: I do not mean to offend anyone. This is simply me talking about things I’ve been thinking about for a while. And questions I’ve been pondering on.

Good and Evil are mere labels. For example, Nature gives life, and destroys it. Nature is neither good nor evil. She gives and takes. The Divine are neither good nor evil, they may do good deeds but also do evil deeds that humans do not agree with but this does not make a god or a goddess evil.

This makes a god and goddess as they are, neutral beings. They can be gentle and trusting and they can be destructive and distrustful but that alone does not, nor should not define anything as good and evil.

Humans are the same. They can be gentle, trusting, destructive and distrustful. We should not be defined as good either, nor should we be defined as evil. We. Just. Are.

Everything just is.

But we simply love our labels. Do we honestly need to label our beliefs, or label others? No. But humans have this endearing relationship with labels, making it simply hard to reject the labels because it feels that without them, our world would fall apart. Heck, even I fall victim to the labels! Labels can give the feeling of unity, especially when someone ends up having the same beliefs as you but labels aren’t that all necessary.

And I shall leave you to a few questions you should think about:
Why should you label your beliefs?
Why can’t you just believe what you want without giving it a name?
Why do we need to name religions?
Why can’t we name our own, make it more personal and thus, it’s more fitting for us?
Do we need to fit in a particular box?
Why is it when someone leaves said box, someone tries to pull them back into said box?
