Yet in drawing such lines, there is first a judgment... when drawing a line of judgment then there comes a requisite of redemption so how are people supposed to redeem themselves when judged through the eyes of so many different views... it becomes an impossibility.
So using ones own judgment is and always will be the best we have going in the moment it arises... wisdom of course takes pause in all of those moments, to consider an effect greater than oneself.

No one can judge you but yet you feel you can judge others... sounds a bit good for the goose but not the gander, that it takes to see more than ones own point of view.
People have been chasing their tails in such views thinking it has nothing to do with what they are attached too for a very very long time.

Well, theres a generalized label out there in concept land called "elite" you've generalized whomever that is in a broad brush stroke as evil.
Now you come along and stamp yet another concept as evil right behind it, do you know explicitly who originated the "elite" term as a generalization? Do you know who exactly they had in mind and were referring too? or are you referencing some group as elite from a self perspective and then labeling that perspective of the people or group you have judged as also now evil.
Congratulations on contradicting yourself... by spreading ignorant empty rhetoric as generalizations, and also demonizing them. Whomever the them or those may be in this personal determination.
It does not bode well as an individual taking conceptual generalized terms to cut down some imaginary group of individuals in such a genocide and then use a belief in something else also a personal conceptual belief to justify such sweeping generalizations.
So how about some personal responsibility? Sure throwing the term "god" around will automatically gain some favor or support for you no matter what nonsense you or anyone else decides to sling with it, but thats only because whomever is already agreeing with the concepts you are stating so why bring a "god" into it at all?
Because realistically it cannot stand on it's own... so why produce such rhetoric or use a blanket belief to defend and then also cognitive deny something you are obviously doing as an individual? To do this and not see it occurring is self deluding and using others delusions of concept as an excuse for it...
Well, there is no excuse for it... it may seem like I am attacking you, irritated, or upset, or blah blah blah else. But I am not, I am simply speaking to the matter of how people sling random generalizations that they have personalized into their own brand of concept to blindly attack and spread hate on whatever group or generalization they have personally made and do not agree with and then find every justification in the world and beyond to make such divisions seem valid and excusable when they are not.
I'm actually doing you a favor by showing yourself that you cannot see, and showing you all the nameless and faceless individuals you are attacking and hoping others agree to cause a divide in the name of hate, for something you personally and others have ignorantly agreed with as a personal belief of random generalization to keep the whole divide and nonsense that does nothing to solve world issues to heal divides and instead to keep it going, in that never ceasing cycle of ignorance until people wake up and quit doing that nonsense.
So now where is that evil actually found? It is in ones own heart making such generalized genocide of entire groups of individuals one does not like or has an aversion or hate for, but it is utterly blind because the label is empty and undefined except by ones own conceptual graspings at that label they define themselves unless it is utterly known whom the originator of the generalization was speaking, then all you become is a parrot echoing the same rhetorical hate and a mouth piece for them ceasing to be an individual. Yet whomever was the originator of the generalization is of course at fault for doing the exact same thing as mentioned above...
That of course does not remove your or anyone else's responsibility in spreading such seeds of discord and division using banners and excuses to do it.
If anyone wants to know whats wrong with the world? It is exactly that. Doing it under a much larger banner called a will of "god" shameful as thats a personal thing too. Of course if one worships chaos and destruction as that "god" mentioned then by all means yourself and others that do such are doing fine work... in keeping all of that going.
I suggest uprooting such ignorance, for peace, tolerance and understanding, to remove those divides... not perpetuate such nonsense as that's exactly why this stupid sh-t in society keeps going... yet one cannot even see evil in their own heart or face when sticking a finger out and pointing oh it's out there somewhere and it's this group and that group, this religion, this nationality or race, creed, belief, idea or ideal blah blah blah.
No it's in the individual and unless someone takes to task to uproot that nonsense, then such "evil" will not cease to exist.

How can you expect to ask God to change his master plan without any vanity?
Or are the needy having things purposefully withheld awaiting Wise One's to ask, and it's part of the plan?
Seems that having God awaiting your instructions in either case may fall under vanity.

If you think dividing people up is a positive thing, where there is no dialog and understanding then yes I am negative to such practices... and I am happy to stand wholly alone without any group banner or standard and tell you hating individuals by group is wrong and ignorant. It's called being personally responsible no matter what any group or label you may identify with or use as an excuse to back up B.S. but hey you;re not alone millions and millions of people do this exact same thing... still doesn't make it right or justifiable.
Perhaps one day you'll see this and understand it and stop defending and rationalizing things and behaviors that are irrational.
I've a great hope that the world comes to understand this so it's not just a personal message to you btw.
