What do you mean "they are better"?
I mean it's a blessing to be in the shadow, because it's a learning experience. I think I'm blessed to have been rejected and lonely.
You have that view which I talked about in this thread, that evil is only negative. I however think evil is God's way of teaching us a lesson. Satan is Lucifer, the light bearer. Satan means the adversary. Our adversaries are our helpers. In our outer world we have people who perpetrate evil. These people enlighten us. How many people would be on this forum and be awake if it wasn't for surveillance or 9/11 for example? They would have gone on being as always. But God doesn't want us to be as always, he wants to kick us in the butt to get us moving back home. And the perpetrators of evil in our outer world also show clearly to us what not to do. Without this there would be no way of knowing good from evil. The contrast is turned up in the outer world so that we can see more clearly what we have in front of us, to see the two paths we can choose between more clearly. That's how I view it.
9/11 is one example of an event that have awakened many. If there is no other way to get us out of this low dimension, then they are helping us. And if we reincarnate anyway, then what's worse, reincarnating back here again and again, or suffering now to ascend the dimensions over time? It's like when you stick a syringe in the arm, or pull off a band aid, it hurts but the end is good. Or like when a child is playing on the railroad track and a train is approaching. What is better, for the father to kick the child off the railroad track or for him to leave the child there? As for people being shadows of their real beings, that's what I mean when I say that they are our versions of them, and not the real them. "Hell is other people." But what is hell really? Maybe it's unpleasant because we don't belong there.
OOOOOO
Yea, introspectionist
There is a thought that there are really only a number of souls, so when there are more, they become a bit washed out.
But how would, a rich NWO baby eater, fit into this picture.

I see it the other way . The more evil you are,the more evil the world looks. The holy grail is how do we stop the evil onesfrom ruling.

I don't subscribe to any of those three options.
As far as I'm concerned, at the end of the day, the only thing that has any right to be effecting my "conciousness" is called: Jack Danials, and I wouldn't want it forced on me either.
Aside from that...

What I've written below is just a hypothesis I've been thinking about.
The world is not material. It's mind/metaphysical/spiritual. It's multidimensional. It's much more moldable than we've been taught. And we all live in our own private universes.
Satan is Lucifer, the light bearer. Evil only serves one purpose; to enlighten us.
