God give us grace to accept with Serenity the things that cannot be changed...

Among what cannot be changed is the reality of evil.

Our separateness from God is a necessary corollary to our freedom of decision.

In exercising freedom we easily fall into self-assertion, especially when convinced of our own righteousness.

The more our decisions express and empower our separate self, the greater the potential for evil.

This is the human condition. The potential for and reality of evil will not change.
