I don't think the Holy Fathead is meant to be an individual, that ain't the point. Besides, it's nobody's fault, because Fault implies Wrong, and that's a distinction we shouldn't make!
While I fully agree that the Holy Fathead is no particular individual, I disagree with the rest. Without passing judgment of what is right and wrong, I have no opinion, no critical thinking skills, no personality; I am nothing. I have no desire to be nothing (well most of the time anyway).
But the point is that the Wrong exists in large amount because we draw the distinction. He's not saying that by any stretch of the imagination that things like serial killing can be construed as "good," what he's trying to say is that such things wouldn't happen if we simply followed our nature. It's not a statement of what a person should or shouldn't believe about the world as it is now, it's a statement about what the world could have been, if we hadn't been distracted into the mold that society has pushed us into

Parabolic thoughts on Parables

I love your parables. The Way... It's difficult to see everything without being colored by distinctions. Black is the absence of color, while white is all colors. For me, this dichotemy exists, and uncarving my 'block' doesn't come easily. I like doing things my own way, which closes my mind more than opens it. You're a good teacher.

I believe there is wrong in the
world, and also evil. It exists,
it's not perfect, it's not simple.
