As ar as I can tell, man has been wrestling with this duality called the battle between good and evil since the beginning. You can ind this in just about everything we hear about and see and do. We have Republican and Democrat... well, you understand. It just goes on and on. Then there are those who see and understand how the circle o good sometimes merges with the circle o evil. What occurs in that shared space cannot possibly be pure good. By the same token, what occurs in that shared space cannot be considered pure evil. It is a mix o the two. As to what percentage the mixture, that depends on a myriad o things: people, situation, money, politics, timing, societal views.
One can look back through history and see great men doing great things. However, inevitably there is always a law in these great people. This is because every great man or woman is lawed just as all mankind is lawed. So we weigh the good with the bad in every decision... or at least try to be that way, and move in accordance with what is conceivably the best or all involved. Now this could be one person, a amily, etc. But through everything we do and everything we think about, the duality o right and wrong, good or evil serves as a basis rom which we think and act or don't think and act. I one does not think beore they act, the result can be a lottery win or a car accident. Again, we have this duality presenting itsel. History through philosophy oers mankind a way to sit through what can only be called the duality o human existence. Hardly anything is more interesting than having a conversation with someone with an open mind, one that can expand and contract with obscene clarity.
