The unknown as evil
So in my last post I said thus:
I suggest that the word nothing be classified as a pre/proto form of evilness alien to us in this mortal coil.
Just for purely semantic reasons that have to do with the conception our brains have of these two words, I don't want to equate nothingness with the unknown. But for clarification purposes, allow me to expound.
The unknnown is something that our brains fails to grasp, i.e., it is something our cognizant selves have yet to name and come to see.
Nothingness has been established as that which lies beyond our grasp in the tangible physical world, that is, nothingness though untangible is that which we can imagine and "see" as there.
However, I am forced to draw a parallel to it since we have now added a new factor to the equation of nothingness and that is the notion that nothingness has something to do with evil and how humans go about in dealing/perceiving with the nothingness that surrounds it (or him or her if you will).
Evil is the fear that arises when humans deal with the unknown. The unknown is that which is not yet known. Intuitively I deduce that the unknown has to reside in the space we have thus far been describing here, as nothingness.
So evil, I conclude, resides in nothingness because nothingness houses the unknown, for where else does the unknown reside but there where nothingness dwells?
