(From a Biblical, Philosophical and Historical point of view)
“The light shineth in the darkness…”
John 1:5
I find this New Testament teaching fascinating. Firstly, What is it referring to, when it calls one thing “Light” and something else “Darkness”? The implication is that everything is not the same; that things are different–and further, it seems to be implying that everything is NOT equal (despite what many people say), but that some things are preferable (e.g., Light) to other things (e.g., Darkness).
