Very intellectual article,  at least from my perspective. 
I'll have to chew on this for a while and re-read a few times to process it, but I think it's a sound perspective. I don't know if I agree that there is no evil or not...I have to think on it. I believe that energy is neutral and it is a persons behaviors that can manipulate that energy into positive and negative. I guess it's my personal good vs. evil theory.
This Dr. brings up a perspective that their is NO evil, just motive to do the best they can. It sounds like he comes from the perspective that humans are inherently good. I have a difficult time feeling that. Growing up in the environment I did, I learned to see the opposite, that people were inherently bad and that it was in the nature of man to destroy and self-destruct. It's a sad way to see the world, but I'm working with T to turn that around.
I also wonder if one person's evil is merely another person's bad behavior and/or yet another persons motivation to do their best. Like comparing apples to apples; some may be tart 'n tangy, while others may be sweet. Either one you eat though, it's still an apple and it is what it is.
Lots to think about on this one. I love a good intellect to chew on. It gives me something to do with my mind.
