Evil is Real, but Not Something I have to Fight

The first part of this statement is important - Evil is Real. Most people do not believe this.

The reason for this is simple - they have decided to not notice bad things. Perhaps thinking if they don't notice them, they will go away. Or they will not exist in the first place.

Or they may use displacement - blaming bad things on others.

These two strategies can be used at the same time, and often are. Without anyone noticing how incompatible they are.

The strategy I have adopted - that evil is real, but I don't have to fight it. seems to be mine alone.

Before leaving this subject, I want to say one thing more. People who do not notice evil, are evil themselves!

Good and Evil are part of the same spectrum of human values, and people can flip from one extreme to the other, easily.
