I believe people can behave in an ""evil"" way. I don't know if I believe that ""Evil"" is an entity all to itself.

More like a verb than a noun for me.

I agree.

I don't think that Evil is a force unto itself just waiting to take over people's actions.

I agree with both of you.

That is sort of the Hollywood version. Hey, Kitty, did you ever see "Fallen"? SHIVER!!! LOL. That was one scary movie! ${#emotions_dlg.devil2}$

(This isn't a slam...hard to tell I know on the boards!)

Anyway, I'm always interested in your take on things. Smile

Some (lots!) of people subscribe to the Hollywood version. Or so it seems to me.

No, I've never seen "Fallen". I'll have to look for it!

I believe in people doing evil, but I do not believe in it as an entity unto itself.

[Obviously I agree with Kitty and Ju Ju, who said the same thing.]

I agree with both of you.

I believe if a person dwells on self, enjoys dwelling on evil things, gets gratification from evil things, his mind can become depraved. Even as a child growing up. I don't think satan and his demons just attack a person. I believe demons are invited when you dwell or do evil things. In addition when you dwell on yourself until you have no respect for other's, I believe you can become demon possessed. Jesus talked about and even cast out demons while on earth. So they do exist. I believe demons are the cause of some mental illness. I was surprised to hear the psychologist say on tv that stress and anxiety can cause blindness and all sorts of things to the body. That has been my understanding for many years that it is mental issues that cause chemical imbalance not the other way around. I don't think evil is a force either, I believe it is a spirit. There is a spirit world and they are doing battle. If you believe in God's word there can be no doubt that there is an evil spirit he called satan. Anyway you look at it, killing these people was acting on evil thoughts.
