Dear Friends,
In view of a needed exercise in discernment, I thought to invite you to offer comments on this lesson attributed to an Aaron of the Nazi Concentration Camps on the subject of "Ultimate Evil".
Knowing that evil is "only the misadaptation of immaturity or the disruptive and distorting influence
of ignorance" and "a measure of imperfection in universe interpretation", one might surmise that attributions of 'ultimacy' to immaturity and ignorance is itself a distortion emblematic of ignorance much like the philosophic underpinnings of "original sin" given sin a response to goodness, truth, and beauty, consciously negative to be sure, but nonetheless certainly nothing 'original'.
One of the most poignant lessons on evil afforded in the experience with literature attributed to divine sources that issue by any means through human agencies, is the encounter with the truth that "evil always results when purely personal evaluations are elevated to the levels of absolutes". Such encounters veritably litter the pathways of all such offerings, the Urantia movement, Teaching Mission, and Magisterial Mission being but recent examples. Of course, Judaism, Christianity, Islam, and many others offer proof of the potent observation that "only with revealed religion did autocratic and intolerant theologic egotism appear."
With this in mind, I enclose the following lessons on "Ultimate Evil" inviting your comments that will be added to the discussion page, and you may note, that in all fairness, questionable lessons are held along with those received without question, but given recent conflicting transmissions, I have added a feature to this lesson and the ABC Summaries pointing readers to the discussion page when questions of value arise from time to time. Let me know what you think.
Gratefully,
Rob
