Really? Must not have read my first post (#18) below. Actually it was a lovefest when I posted, with exception of two posts, one from MtD and one from Houston post. I even thanked you for sharing your thoughts, and agreed with a couple things you said.
My first post HERE

No, but that's not what the parable is about. The parable is clear that the wheat are the children of God and the tares are the children of the wicked. One cannot read this and believe that wheat AND tares are in a child of God.
If you read my first post, you'd see where I did agree that deception does try to mix in with truth. I also believe, as you posted, there is evil and good, tares and wheat, positives and negatives, truth and deception in this world; however, I do not believe they are together in the life of a believer. As I stated then, the Bible says it's either righteousness OR unrighteousness, light OR darkness, Christ OR belial. Never do these mix together.
Let me ask you a question: do you believe God is wicked?
