They respect A and have contempt on B, they never have contempt on A and respect B. Or at least they try to do this very hard until they engender a code violation, then they try even harder! Eventually they flip sides and make the violation right, then they only respect B and have contempt on A. Thus they dramatize themselves into a tight weave of one way flows on all the various items of their lives, and they sink under the weight of lies, reversals, alter-is, failed intentions and charge. The being who is dramatizing item-pairs is not running them out, he is running them in, he is spreading himself thinner and thinner on the wings of the dicom, trying to live on the extreme tips, and never living life from the *NOTHING* that is in the center. This is probably in part why people take such exception to Carol, she seems to want to push that God and Ultimate Truth are good etc. Now maybe there is a God that is Good, that would be a great relief to those who are apparently stuck in a world where everyone is bad, but both are one way flows of Magnitude. The Christian God may be good but the ultimate God is *NOTHING*. The joke is even Nothing doesn't describe it, because nothing/something is just another dicom. If it can be described, it ain't God. But nothing is a much better idea for Fountainhead of Source than good. From that Nothing pours forth the manifestation of the wings of the dicom, nothing/something, good/bad, beauty/ugly, love/hate, light/dark, respect/no respect, magnificence/anti-magnificence, etc, and then God distributes itself out on those dicoms in the form of individual Selves, in order to have a theatrical play called life. This is all immensely intentional, one therefore has to ask if a God that creates good and evil is really good? That certainly is not the human concept of good which is parked way on the extreme end of the good/bad dicom which can't admit to creating ANY bad. Thus living on one wing of the dicom inherently implies irresponsibility for the other wing. The human in fact will tend to think of such a God that creates good and bad, as bad, because it sure ain't good to him to create good *AND* bad, and bad is all he has left to think with as he lives on the wing of the dicom and can't see anything else. Adore says that God is Divine, meaning prone to creating dicoms, but Divine is itself just another dicom, Divine/Holy. (Divine is the care free pre dicom state, Holy is the careful post dicom state.) By positing ultimate truth as good, light, beauty, love, respect, one traps the being into striving very hard to move from one side of the wing where he is stuck to the other side where he WANTS to be stuck so he can never slip off to the bad side again. This sticks him in manifestation because it sticks him to one wing of the dicom. It would seem a bit inhuman to suggest that beings practice being both good and bad, but truth is in order to reach the nothing in the middle that is native state, that is exactly what you have to do, and all becomes Flow 0. *ALL* becomes Flow 0.
