The Creator made the world full of challenges. It states (and makes sense) in Genesis that the universe was created from the Lord. Further, our entirely unique mental abilities were specially given later on. The universe, with all its pain, is a challenge for us to prove we are worthy of re-integrated with the Lord upon the end of our trial (death).

Evil is what we want to do but are admonished, by the Lord, not to do. Of course corporeal evil does not apply to the Lord--the Lord is omniscient and should have no struggles. The denial of evil--which is difficult for both sexes though in different ways--is to prove we can facilitate our unique gifts (logic and self-control being a couple) and therefore are worthy.

Ethics springs from mortality, but this is not the case for morality. (<-------I know, a tricky syntax/diction).

Interesting take, but what is morality then?
