Is there really such a thing as evil? If so, what is the nature of evil? In considering ourselves “good,” are those who oppose us evil? Do evil people deserve to be punished, excluded, isolated, and condemned for the sake of all that is good? If good and evil are but lines for making such distinctions, between those who deserve to be rewarded and those who deserve to be punished, how sharp is the line? How blurred? Such questions cannot be wholly answered, given that the problem of evil is perennial, but let’s wrestle with them anyway.
