Previously I asked . Some of the answers pointed to trannies/pedos and the power of globohomo as evidence, which I definitely feel is convincingly suggestive of a great force of evil.

I would heap onto this category of suggestive evidence the sort of mass stupidity/foolishness that is so omnipresent that you can barely find anyone in the world who isn't victimized by whatever is causing it. More evil.

I often worry that there's more evidence to suggest a great supernatural evil than there is to suggest a great supernatural good.

Call it God, or the Holy Ghost, or whatever. Maybe there is a pagan equivalent but from what I've seen in those traditions things aren't so dualistic. Do you think that exists? What would you point to as evidence that suggests it does?

Can you believe in Satan (or whatever you want to call it) without God? Though initially it's counterintuitive I would like to hear the argument for why you couldn't...

And now I will ping some people who were involved in the previous discussion: .

edit: And I should've included this originally, but in the previous discussion we settled on a definition of evil (in people), as basically that which contradicts or disrupts a functioning natural order of things.

You know the conversation's getting good when the references to literary works and pre-ethics boards psychological experiments come out!

I am familiar with the Milgram experiment, but will have to add Electronic Sheep to my reading list.

Isn't the most interesting thing about all this evil in the world that it almost invariably claims to be in the name of what is good? Likewise, I think a lot of people (perhaps a majority) would say we are on the side of evil who claim evil is parents enrolling their children in drag shows. Maybe we should take ' suggestion and make everyone get a brain scan. Whoevers' frontal lobes are more damaged has to sudoku.

I don't know if brain scans will cut it. I think this kind of behavior will always find a way of popping up. A psychopath is born, a sociopath is made. If one is taught from the Talmud, they will develop disassociative issues like sociopathy.

In short, the only way through the ages to not be subverted by this stuff is to raise our children to recognize the behaviors as immoral and train children to do the hard things. The problem is, cognitive work on these kinds of things are difficult as we're also all addicted to affirmations.

I also do agree with that much of the bible is fake subversion, but I have a hunch (correlatively anyway) that there are pieces of the New Testiment that are actually talking about active vigilance against our own psyche to not groom dopamine/affirmation addiction and follow truth. Hence we worship false idols, like money and other things which are a perversion of natural order that one who doesn't understand virtue would have to emulate it. In this way, it seems like psychopathy and evil manifest to the same end.
