At wearisome length Dionysius discusses the problem of evil and shows that nothing is inherently bad. For existence is in itself good (as coming ultimately from the Super-Essence), and all things are therefore good in so far as they exist. Since evil is ultimately non-existent; a totally evil thing would be simply non-existent, and thus the evil in the world, wherever it becomes complete, annihilates itself and that wherein it lodges. We may illustrate this thought by the nature of zero in mathematics, which is non-entity (since, added to numbers, it makes no difference) and yet has an annihilating force (since it reduces to zero all numbers that are multiplied by it). Even so evil is nothing and yet manifests itself in the annihilation of the things it qualifies. Aeterna Press

"In The Divine Names the unknown Dionysius the Areopagite expresses many profound truths concerning the Divine Nature, based upon discussions of the names which are ascribed in the Bible to Him and to His attributes. In doing so, Dionysius had the advantage of the mystical teachings of the Neoplatonic School, which developed the Platonic teachings. Since he treated these from a Christian point of view, Dionysius played a great part in developing Christian mysticism. At the same time he is a link with the older thought, and therefore illustrates how the one fundamental truth is contimued [sic] through many schools of thought."--
