Dear Mr. Tovey

Thanks a lot for your answers particularly regarding the concept of good and evil. But the question here is that why the Almighty creator allows evil acts since it is he who allows evil to be created.

Regarding evil I want to say is that possible that for good to become evil and vice versa ? Is there anything from a Biblical viewpoint to justify as such ?

Regarding biblical viewpoint , bible is a vast text. Now since we live in different worlds and our youth has surpassed through different phases of history our interpretation of Bible will be different. For example even many of the founding fathers of America were categorized as evil by the existing clergy of pro-British Anglican church in England although both the founders and the Anglican clergymen confessed to the same Jesus. So my question is if our interpretation of bible does not match does that mean we will be perpetual evils to each others' perceptions ?

Take care

Deb
