To Know

from Eulogy by Schizophrenic Housecat

lyrics

Now another thing we have to look at is good and evil, Or what he's concerned with people telling whether something is good or evil now it seems like it should be real easy to tell doesn't it. They um think they can tell something that's good from something that's evil and it's clear they can't. What happened to them when they ate off that tree there was two times it said God knows if you eat off this tree your eyes will be opened and it says you'll know good and evil now we got understand whatever this was as far as God's concerned it's the same thing as dying. There's a real important word and it's the word to know it says when you you either that tree your eyes will be open and you'll know good and evil well that sounds like you know I heard one guy say that's dumb because all the time they knew good so the only thing they got out of it was to know evil they'd have been better off to just no good and not know evil but that's not really what happened when I look up the word to know it's this word Yodas and it means to know and it says properly to ascertain by seeing, To to know to learn to know to perceive to discriminate to distinguish to know by experience now here's here's the magic word to know by seeing. And to know means to ascertain by seeing now what you have to understand that's a real important word that means you're going to look at something and determine by what you see or what you think or what you feel or what you experience you're going to determine if something's good or bad or not and I don't know if you can tell but people do not do that very well. Okay now what is happening is the man had some kind of part of some part of his consciousness became activated where he thinks he can look at something and tell if it's right or wrong and if you understand my meaning when I said God got done and he said he was done he said it's finished it was very good he did not put that capability in the man. He got done and the man did not have that capability and he said if you eat off that tree you're going to get the capability where you think you can look at something and tell if it's right or wrong good or evil this is the problem. People are determining something if it's good or evil or not based on what they see what they think what they feel their experiences and that ain't how you tell if something's good or evil. There is good and there is evil there is right and there's not right they're just it like truth and stuff that is not true it's not true because somebody says it's true whatever is true is true because it's true and when something is good it's good because it's good and if it's evil it's evil because it's evil. Okay can you look at every situation and be absolutely certain the right decision was made every time and all these situations there's a lot of them even after they make a decision people still don't know if it was the right decision people just don't have that capability and God said when you eat off that tree you're going to get that where you think you can look at something and tell that it's right or wrong good or evil and he said that'll kill you and he said when you're doing this it's the same as being dead as far as he's concerned.
