Re: Astral pollution

Not the OP, could I ask a question related to this? Are negative emotions also divine, and thus exist on the higher spiritual planes as well? For example, Ares / Mars has some negative qualities associated with him, as does his children Phobos and Deimos. Or Eris, Nemesis, and so on.

In your book A World Full Of Gods there is a section on the problem of evil, where you argue that the problem of evil is only a problem in monotheistic religions, and in polytheistic religions you can pantheons as the Greek pantheon where the negative emotions have deities associated with them. What I don't understand is how then negative emotions exist on the lower astral, say, rather than being divine powers on the the upper planes.
