On Affirming Emanation as Opposed to Ex Nihilo and Lost Data Continued

"This is the message we have heard from him and proclaim to you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all."-1 John 1:15 Why when, you mix white and black, you get grey, and neither over powers the other? Because they exist within each other. Darkness is a form of light. It is merely light in repose or withdrawn; NOT the absence of light. Everything is light, exists on the electromagnetic (light) spectrum, including darkness- ultraviolet. Just in different gradations or frequencies. Whenever light is withdrawn from something, it is darkened, or takes on a murky quality, but is never absent, which is impossible. I affirm some commonalities with the Valentinian tradition in that I think that darkness emerged out of the light emanated from God and as it proceeded from Him down the way (and hierarchy-density) became distant to Him and took on an "otherly" or deficient element, finally being entangled in matter which is composed of varying degrees of light and darkness, not only to benefit us mortal creatures (who can't know one without the other), but also to highlight the cosmic drama, essentially a morality play that God had scripted beforehand and which would play out in this dense Creation cycle. In the Valentinian view matter was considered "the shadow" of the Pleroma or Uncreated Realm of Supernal Light (where the Father of Light dwells as per James 1:17 and 1 Timothy 6:16) or the "Ain Soph Aur" of Kabbalistic tradition of which I would affirm in agreement with.
