Evil is &quot;good people&quot; thinking &quot;the ends justify the means&quot;.<p>&quot;It&#x27;s unfortunate we have to persecute these even the women and children, but it&#x27;s required to make a more fair and just world.&quot;<p>&quot;It&#x27;s unfortunate we have to go to war in Iraq, but it&#x27;s required to defend peace in the region, from the threat of mass weapons of destruction.&quot;<p>Of course, &quot;the ends&quot; are never achieved, because the &quot;means&quot; they use will cause even more problems to be solved.<p>Persecuting Jews to achieve justice and fairness for the German people =&gt; Destruction of Germany.<p>War in Iraq to remove dictatorship and mass weapons of destruction =&gt; Rogue terrorist group governing by coercion and hundreds and thousands of civilian deaths.<p>I ask you. What other examples of evil can you see in our world, today? What other evil things are people are doing in the name of good?<p>Most important to remember: Evil is stopped by being persistently good ourselves, even when pressured and coerced to do otherwise, and that&#x27;s all that we have to do.
