As someone who's seen it happen in my own family, I have to say that eventually you reach saturation point. No matter how much love you have for someone, the time comes when their rejection of you and everything you stand for has to just....be.

I don't really care to transcribe the bible word for word, but the info is there for those who want to read it. In addition, my opinions are my own, and don't necessarily reflect those of this station, its advertisers, or its deity.

I have the same questions as a non-believer, but I guess they've been answered on a spiritual level. Why God doesn't answer them for everyone is a mystery to me. I know it's a harder position to defend than "I haven't seen it, so it never happened," and I'm underprepared in any event.

As far as defining evil, though, my point is that it's just something that exists - maybe it's an active force, maybe it's a condition, the nature of it doesn't need to be quantified as long as the effects of it are apparent. But if it's the same condition that causes both minor wrongs (saying something shitty to someone) and major (murder and rape), the only moveable part in the equation is the person's willingness to submit to it.
