A Finite Factor

What is Evil?
Adam was the Son of God according to the genealogy in the gospels ( St.Lu 3: 38). Through Adam we have the material make-up that expresses our kinship to the highest Ideal- we can be as seraphs and cherubs. But there is a muddy road that we are called to walk on, - The vale of tears.
Is there a way of reconciling the two?
We are terrestrial creatures. We call ourselves homo sapiens , the wise ones. How wise can any one be, who fouls up the place and lives in it, money grubbing all day long?
Evil in its essence is that where we have peeked into a higher realm of existence
(and we know for certain it is in our reality) we would rather stoop to dirt in order to be like every one else. This is what finite factor would mean.
Our compromise is not something we will ever admit. That would be too
painful! That would be like a slap on our face of respectability. So we excuse for catering to our lower nature and its appetites, as being relevant to our time and place.
