Wow! Root of evil, great wisdom, Hermetic tradition in Christianity-- where else can one find such a conversation in the middle of a plandemic? May I offer a bit of sobornost from the late N.Berdyaev: "dark meonic freedom" is the pre-'good and evil' Origin of Creation. In scientific (rather than philosophical) terms we're talking about 'initial conditions. 'Me on' versus 'ouk on' were Platonic categories of non-Being or Nothingness. Paul Tillich disclosed those categories as relative versus absolute nonBeing respectively. 'Dark' refers to 'as yet undisclosed' --not yet good or evil. Berdyaev advocates that all creativity e.g. mRNA is either in the relative direction of the Originator's intent or Absolutely not. It is a fine e.g. "fascinating" distinction. [ http://www.berdyaev.com/berdiaev/berd_lib/1930_349.html ] Interesting problem definition: How to maintain BOTH free creativity AND relative Being.
We're also talking about mRNA gene therapy technology as an instance of Augustine's Eighth Day of Creation (unless you're a literal six-dayer).

I advocate against a zero=sum Origin.
