I reject this teaching of yours (and Jews?) for one big reason:
(1) The Kabbalah says GOD does both tov and ra naturally. You also said the same thing, God does both tov and ra naturally so their is balance in our universe.
You do not understand what ra is. Ra is not something sacred and natural and holy nor some functional part of nature. Ra is the running down of design, the spoiling of design, the wearing our of design, the corruption of design. Given sufficient time the entire universes would cease to exist because of ra.
Yep – entropy – without it creation would not function
Yep – entropy – without it creation would be a cold motionless thing
Consider a world without friction, without thermodynamic laws,
You can fantasies all you want – the discussion here is about reality

Of course, the universe has certain elements that are not in a story. For one thing, its characters are real in a way that story characters are not real. They are (within limits) their own free agents. They can choose the paths by which their story will play out (again, within limits).
ROB" Even the Opposer has his limits and controls.... love the passage above...
Yet – you claim your satan has no limits – is opposing God right to rule God’ own creation

When the first human being was created, G d “blew into his nostrils the breath of life.”3 In Hebrew, that breath of life is the neshamah. Within you, at your very core, that neshamah breathes according to your unique role in the universe. Together, as a single whole, all these divine breaths comprise the entire inner spirit of the Shechinah that is invested within G d’s creation, just as in that primal human being.
In our prayers, your neshamah speaks. She doesn’t speak for herself alone. She becomes nothing more than a channel through which the Shechinah speaks.
I quote" Within you, at your very core, that neshamah breathes according to your unique role in the universe."
Wish Dave understood this fact. Thank you Jewish commentary. The neshamah is what makes us me...unique.
Ecc 3:19 For that which befalleth the sons of men befalleth beasts; even one thing befalleth them: as the one dieth, so dieth the other; yea, they have all one breath; so that a man hath no preeminence above a beast: for all is vanity.
Ecc 3:20 All go unto one place; all are of the dust, and all turn to dust again.
Ecc 3:21 Who knoweth the spirit of man that goeth upward, and the spirit of the beast that goeth downward to the earth?
Wish Robert understood this fact. Thank you Tanak scripture. The spirit is what makes us me...unique
But Robert denies the spirit - man has no spirit - each man is just empowered by the Holy Spirit
