Everyday in news, there are new incidents of rape, murder, theft, child abuse, etc., and most of these cases were remained unsolved. All showed hatred and sadism by torturing their victims and showing no compassion or remorse. Does evil reside with the individual? Or is it a force which can be as powerful when applied to more than one person? For cases involving more than one individual, the fact that neither found the other’s deeds reprehensible enough to question is enough to make anyone wonder about the true nature of evil.
Evil arises among human being that causes sufferings in which life abounds. People are given freedom to do what is right and what is wrong. It is our free will or choice to do such thing. But sometimes or maybe should I say, most of the time, this so-called free will is abused. Knowing that it may lead to total destruction with oneself, and worst to other people, that may led to exercise evil actions.
