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.

As a future restorative journalist, I have no other sword to stop all these kind of immorality but to move people to the truth, truth about what is right by spreading the words of God through my powerful pen. I’m not sure if this would be the most effective way to prevent these wrong doings, but sharing God thoughts would be a possible way to enlighten their heart and mind. My ultimate goal is to lead people to fallacies which God opposes.
It would be the best way to be a restorative journalist, than to be a conventional journalist somehow, because in the latter, all the themes being wrote are based on what sells – violence, scandals, intrigues, scams, in which in my own perspective it may worsen the present situation and perhaps it may influence the people to do such crimes, and because it highlights on fallen man.
Poverty, oppression, and some forms of diseases are instances of evil arising from imperfect social organization. Mental suffering, such us anxiety, disappointment, and remorse, and the limitation of intelligence which prevents human beings from attaining to the full comprehension of their environment, are congenital forms of evil, each vary in character and degree according to natural disposition and social circumstances.
Though the same curse may give pain to one, and pleasure to another, pain and pleasure, as sensations or ideas, cannot but be mutually exclusive. No one, however, has attempted to deny this very obvious fact, and the opinion in question may perhaps be understood as merely a paradoxical way of stating the relativity of evil.
Evil consists in a certain relation of man to his environment, or that is arises in the relation of the component parts of the totality of existence to one another. It is very obvious that all evil is negative. It is the deprivation of something necessary for perfection.
If we keep on considering those temptations around us, definitely it may reach into the point that people may turn as puppets of Satan, and sins will rule the whole society. Having more faith to God can prevent these kinds of evil thoughts.
