The Nature of Evil
I’ve been doing some research on comparative versions on the origin of evil and came across this conclusion. The general pattern in Eastern religions is to consider evil as the effect of spiritual ignorance. The first noble truth proclaimed by the Buddha states that the only reality of human existence is the all-pervading reality of suffering. This perspective is valid …

Straight From The Horses Mouth
“In my opinion, multitudes of Christians find themselves in a real-life Milgram experiment these days.
