RE: If you don't like it, delete it, but quit whining

Dallas offers:

The only difference between Black and White Magic is the motive.
It is selfishness vs, liberality and the practice of brotherhood.

It is the isolation of the vicious vs, the altruism and
compassion of the wise.

Wisdom implies knowledge an discrimination.  It also implies the
ability to decide on a plan that will help others and carrying it
through.

Each one can thus decide what is black or white in their own
thought and execution - no one need decide that when
superficially looking at the lives of others. MYOB is a very good
maxim to apply each to himself/or herself.

Best wishes,

Dallas

I did not intend this to be taken personally. It is an expression
that I use to suggest an occult fact: Black and White (i.e., good
and evil) are in our own minds and quite often when we think
we see them in some external event or incident, it is projection
from our shadow. As we "clean up" our shadow via its conscious
assimilation, we tend to see shades of grey where before things
appeared black or white. This is true of everyone, me included.
