fuck this is gonna get complicated and i don’t wanna do all the leg work to sort it out for ya. there’s a lot to be said and it takes forever to say it all if it’s to be done right. that’s my dilemma at this juncture; to do it right, or not do it at all. so i’m gonna try and cheat a little.
the concept of ‘god’ which you believe your premise disproves is actually wrong on two counts. first, it’s an anthropomorphic concept of god, and second, it assumes that it wouldn’t be necessary for ‘evil’ to exist if such a god existed, anyway. so even if you were right in your anthropomorphic conception of ‘god’, you’d be wrong in your argument against evil. but since you’re wrong about your conception of ‘god’, you’re argument against evil is fortunately irrelevant.
so ‘good’ and ‘evil’ are completely relative concepts which reflect our incomplete knowledge of the natural necessity and perfect order of everything. shit happens like we like, we call it ‘good’. shit happens that sucks, we call it ‘evil’ (or ‘bad’ for those a little less extravagant in their terminology). but these things are not essential characteristics of substance… rather only attributes of the more crude emotions which we experience. as value judgments they are of a lower order than purely rational knowledge (of which is included the relative and contingent nature of ‘good’ and ‘evil’).
in any case, an existence of universal consent would be something static. it’s in the nature of what exists that it be changeable and dynamic, and therefore generative of the lower order of experiences of joy and sorrow and all those other tedious little emotions that humans feel while moving about in space and time and bumping into each other. particle complexes swirling around in a void sometimes produce the phenomena of pleasure, and sometimes the phenomena of pain. that’s how it works, dude, so you gotta hunker down and deal with it. the good news is, being that we have the power and capacity to modify and control these particle complexes, we can sometimes foresee and prevent particular particle complexes that result in the phenomena of pain. that’s the beauty of our uniqueness; two modes of being - mind and extension - united as if by some mysterious anthropic principle that had us planned the whole time. that great catastrophe of existence that occurred when the balance of the void was disturbed, ended up producing us, bro. who would have thunk it.
