It’s probably true that there are about as many acts of
malevolence in the world at any given time as there are acts of compassion.
This sadly is the human condition. Human institutions of all kinds are
constructed to try to sway the balance one way or the other. The Garden of Eden
was not paradise because of love, but because blind obedience. While the
misbehavior of Adam and Eve lost us paradise, it actually gave us something
better to chase after—love of the world and pleasure in achieving it. Love is a
human invention continually in flux and continually transforming itself over
time.
