The Problem Of Evil
The Problem Of Evil To me, evil is intentionally hurting someone else physically or emotionally and gaining pleasure by it. I definitely believe that there is some kind of evil in the world. If there wasn’t we wouldn’t be dealing with the problems we have today. I believe that there is evil in the world because of all of the daily events that happen like mass shootings, terrorism, serial killers, war, clinical depression, diseases, disorders and much more. The world would be completely different if these factors did not exist. I believe that people are born evil and they can also develop it too but influences around them. There are some hereditary problems that may make people look evil but they really can't help it. In our world we tend to ignore evil and because more and more things are happening and we just become accustomed to it. It's just the norm now. I don't think there's a proper response to evil and we can't necessarily confront it because we never know what the outcome will be. Evil people are in the world because they don't like themselves and they have no empathy. A person can have a malfunction in the brain to cause them to be evil, there are a lot different kinds. Then there are narcissists that purposely make lies of other people to make themselves look great and to dehumanize the other person. They make everyone become against one specific person and talk bad about them in every way possible. That can permanently destroy someone's self esteem and trust for other people. In my opinion this is a form of evil. Evil is something we have to deal with whether it personal or not. The media shows examples of evil everyday. I wish it didn't exist because the world would be a much happier place but unfortunately that's not the case. Life has its ups and downs, good and bad sides to it and we all have to get through it.
