The ability to distinguish between light and darkness is critical    
What is an abject fool?    How can intelligent, educated people be abject fools?   
    they are blind
    their knowledge is not founded in God
    they do not know the Truth

When you cannot see because of blindness or darkness you draw wrong conclusions.   

This is why Christ Jesus came to earth - to bring light and Truth into a dark and confused world.   

Those who reject Christ Jesus not only remain in darkness and confusion but go deeper into it.   
For this people's heart is waxed gross, and their ears are dull of hearing, and their eyes they have closed; lest at any time they should see with their eyes and hear with their ears, and should understand with their heart, and should be converted, and I should heal them.
The Lord cannot help someone who does not want to be helped.     The dull ears and eyes are metaphors for hearts that are not interested in the Lord.     When a person draws near to the Lord, He draws near to them.

And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil.
Jesus has forgiven all sin.     But the sin of unbelief in that fact condemns the unbeliever to hell.     

Why is such a free and loving gift rejected by so many?     They are rebellious by nature and they love sin.     And that attitude makes them enemies of good.     

Those who allow evil to reign in their lives prefer the cover of darkness so they do not have to see the truth.     They also prefer others to be in darkness so those do not see the wickedness either.

Distinguishing Between Good And Evil is only possible when a person looks through the lens of Truth.   

Truth is only obtained by exposure to
    the Word Of Truth and
    the Spirit Of Truth
