Good and Bad
God and Devil, Sin and Virtue, Heaven and Hell
G-D is just a symbolic representation of Good (the creator of, the source of, Good embodied)
Devil is, likewise, Evil (d is the 4th letter, so I think of "for evil")
Heaven is Bliss, Happiness, Contentment, neutral (non-suffering). It can be a State or a Place.
Hell is Pain and Suffering, Torture and Torment, Discontent and Misery and Depression. Things like agony and nausea and bother and anguish and hopeless despair. Feeling troubled, anxious, frustrated, powerless. Grief, disgust, futility, meaninglessness, pointlessness, emptiness, defeated.
Heaven and Hell are different "neighborhoods" of the same place (Earth, The Universe).
If you're in heaven you're not in hell (you're happy not miserable, resentful, angry), and vice versa.
They say hell can be heaven, and heaven hell: it's all in your head.
Sin is crime, vice, immorality, bad (breaking God's law, the UTM, universal theistic morality). VICKI, (vice illegality crime killing immorality) (vile insane cruel kidnapping ignoramus) (valuable impressive compassionate kind intelligent).
Good is Health, Happiness*, Pleasure, Virtue, Truth, Beauty, Love, Peace, Prosperity, Comfort, Kindness, Mercy, Forgiveness, Justice, Fairness, Safety and Security, Trustworthiness, Loyalty, Helpfulness/Service, Friendliness, Courtesy, Obedience, Cheerful, Thrifty, Brave, Clean, Reverent, Contentment, Satisfaction, Equanimity, Compassion, Patience, Gentleness, Forbearance... (loyalty, obedience, and reverence are ranked last on my list, though). Unity, community, teamwork, cooperation, togetherness, family. Goods are good, services too, capitalism and a well-oiled economy of hard-working, altruistic, non-greedy workers as well, but the profit-motive works wonders, and to be rich is glorious, and wealth and prosperity are well and proper!
What pairs well with being rich? Spending well, not hoarding. Generosity, charity, selflessness, sacrifice, service, giving, good will, concern, beneficence, benevolence, magnanimity, hospitality, grace, geniality. Most bang for buck, most happiness/dollar. Bliss/buck, delight/dollar, pleasure per penny, most merriment for your money, you could say. Maximized mirth. Greatest glee for your gold. The most gladness for your green. The most cheer for your change. Warmth and wellness for your wealth!
Factors of Omniscience: Truth, Science, Facts, Curiosity, Knowledge, Wisdom, Understanding, Engagement, Research, Reflection, Enlightenment.
Some think it's all good. With realization, acceptance, understanding. Without attachments, aversion.

You are your own You-phoric You-niverse! (Eureka, cries Euclid; The You-nity of eu/ you/ yoo/ u/ yu/ yiu/ yeu/ and yew! Y'all). Yahweh and Allah, y'all. YAYOG. You are your own god. I realize this may sound absurd. I mean, you probably didn't create the Eternal Heavens, eh? But you DO have agency over your mind and experience, and world. You are the principal architect of your own Good Life.
.. drinking a yoo-hoo under a yew tree in Utah during Yule, listening to a euphonic ukulele, governed by eudemonia. I'm euchred! said Yuri, after attempting to explain the difference between eugenics and euphenics. The priest administered the eucharist under the eucalyptus tree in Yuma, after the eulogy. Euphemisms and Me-phemisms! For example, e.g., ISMs could be euphemistic for Insane Stupid Monsters. Monster could be an acronym for Merciless Onerous Nasty Stupid Tormenting Evil Radge! 'Britney Spears' is an anagram for 'Presbyterians.' POS-ISM, piece of shit, insane stupid monster. IT-IV, incubus terror, ignorant villain. (Positivism is the philosophy of believing only assertions backed by LAMP, logical and mathematical proof, or scientifically verifiable (through observation and reason) fact). It's not about being giddy, overjoyed, or perky. A positivist can be gloomy, actually. Gloom-Doom isn't considered good, usually, but not everyone is the same. Some seem the same, but defer to the different. Like those in a queer choir. Or Avalokiteshvara marrying Kali.
Gratified Optimistic Pleased and Delighted Ecstatic Merry :-)
