Lar,
Without us, mankind, personkind, evil has no traction. Repeating and protecting our multi-generational multi-layer dysfunction is an eerie match-up for what Hollywood portrays as evil.
Do an experiment, please. Select a book that has lotsa known evil in it and change every lie in the book into facts and details that refute the lies. Then read the story again, noticing how the story no longer works because there are all these disconnects in the plot. That disturbance in the time line is the territory where the evil in the story lerks. This is only one drill that comes to mind. See if you have other ways that dysfunction sucks us into acting as if we are evil personified.
OhByTheWay, Lar, good to see you and have a happy and merry time for the next nine days...
Rod
