I know that is what you are saying. I never implied differently.

Yes, that is what I said: The evil that man does is never good.

(My rewording of your question does not contradict your question.)

This (in bold) implies that evil that man does is always evil. This is too obvious to imply. And so i would say you implied differently. And while not contradicting, its not what im saying.

Also

Is there any man made evil that is good? This is also not implied through causal inference, as man made evil doesnt exist in determining good, its the man made witholding of goodness which is causing the "evil" to exist.

Im saying ALL EVIL is absence of Good, so the existential element is "absence of good", and evil itself is NOT a "natural Creation".

There is no evil you can tell me, that is not from mankind or jins own doing, and further its JUST FROM WITHOLDING GOOD, that this evil arises.

Its not an existence in itself, like "part of the universe" " oh stuff just happens" or "the evil that man does is never good" as HE IS NOT DOING EVIL

He is just NOT DOING GOOD. Even the ORIGINAL intention behind the "evil" is to attain some benefit or "good" for himself, and this is why a SIN is someone who misses the mark (an archery term in English and Arabic) as he is trying to hit the bullseye, but keeps missing the mark.

So i would say the "evil man does is only through witholding good"

So when the common theological questions arise about the "problem of evil"

Q. Why is there so much evil in the world.?
A. There is NO evil in the world. There is just a lot of witholding of Goodness from Mankind and Jinn.

Though good on you for perservering while i figure out a deeper understanding of the nature of things, and apologies if i sound curt or cutting, its not my intention to be that way whatsover, it me grappling with the issue.

And i appreciate your input for it helps me with the above so thankyou

I also appreciate the fact you stayed on topic, addressed the exact question, didnt divert into sectarian issues nor just try and pooh pooh anything that doesnt seem to fit into ones own perspective
