Dualism.


Because I write about Christianity and Satanism you may think that I believe in Dualism.

But the only reason that I use dualistic formulae like: life and death, good and evil, light and darkness, day and night etc. is to counteract the negative suggestions put out by Satanists in our popular culture.

These negatives have been created by reversing positive Christian concepts.

This is born of a belief in Dualism.

i.e. That the positives of God: life, good, light etc. must have negative counterparts.

But this is not necessarily true. 

Personally I believe that God is One.

And all things are interrelated aspects of God.

There is no devil, no dark powers.

Even darkness is an optical illusion caused by the limitations of our human eyes.

"even the darkness is not dark to you;
the night is as bright as the day,
for darkness is as light to you."  Psalm 139:12 (NRSV)

There is radiation beyond our human eyesight which other beings can see.

God is One:

Life without death, good without evil, light without darkness, day without night, love without hatred.....

We are surrounded by the Love of God.

"'"In him we live and move and have our being."'"  Acts 17:28 (NRSV)
