Dear Evangelical leaders, please explain to me what evil is. I thought sexual assault of 14-year-old girls would qualify ... but maybe I'm wrong?

But good vs evil exsists as a social construct.

I don't agree. Good and evil are more than a social construct.

My point was they are an accepted social construct that we as a society accept and discuss in terms. I agree they are much more than social constructs.

Yes, of course.... it’s just this evil thing... i think I see ‘evil’ as acting out. I think ‘evil’ is disturbed. Perverse. I don’t believe in a fixed ‘evil’. I think it allows people to sit in a place of self righteousness when ‘evil’ is fixed.... I feel this is important now...

We are not separate from ‘evil’ we can all fall into it... this is a time when we need compassion for people’s ‘sins’ not judgement. ‘Evil’ to me ‘separates’ and ‘divides’ we are ALL gods creatures and ALL need love.

Now I’m curious to see what pre Christian societies thought evil as. In tarot the devil feels more like a thing we go through, rather than a permance of being. Marianne I think you are completely awesome btw
