Briefly, the intellectual realities, such as all the qualities and admirable perfections of man, are purely good, and exist. Evil is simply their nonexistence. All these things have no real existence. The epitome of this discourse is that it is possible that one thing in relation to another may be evil, and at the same time within the limits of its proper being it may not be evil. When man no longer receives life, he dies.
Light is an existing thing, but darkness is nonexistent.
Wealth is an existing thing, but poverty is nonexisting. Then it is evident that all evils return to nonexistence.
