I do not adhere to the belief that forces good and evil are fighting each in the traditional sense battle. Tension occurs as a result of conflict but to label tension an outright battle is an exaggeration of terms. However, if evil or goodness were to upset the balance, one being greater than the other balance always restores itself.

People can only give an opinion, as 'true or false' at this level cannot be verified. Humans have been pondering this question since the discovery of fire. Good and evil have been viewed as a colossal struggle over the hearts and minds by God and Satan, and in other views simply the natural forces of the universe. Yin and Yang.

Everything is a form of energy. It is basically neutral but is affected by human activity, which is a mixture of positive and negative. It needs to be kept in balance. (I'm quoting what I have read).

Agnostic logic: GOD vs DEVIL = GOOD vs EVIL and further, I believe only that it is humankind that creates good or evil and that it is a matter of individual choice as to be good or evil. However, some people may be predisposed or indoctrinated to choose a particular way of being. If folks need a higher authority (or fear of punishment) to make the decision to be good, so be it.

This is the controversy

One must study

Gensis 6:5
The LORD saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every intention of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.

That was in Noah's day

Seems rather current

Because people haven't changed.
If 'God' created Mankind, then He is responsible for the evil in us. Or did He only create the physical body, not our souls?
 
Human nature can be good or evil. Choice are the actions of a person's nature. Making good decisions may not be easy for people who are naturally prone to putting themselves first. Evil people are self-serving and anti-social, lacking empathy or trust.
 
All in all folks I just think of these things. There is no value in them except for the folly of thought and reason. Reality is simply a condition we believe to be true. If we do not believe it to be true does that mean it is not real? Who am I to choose what is real or not real for you?
