"Evil" doesn't exist as an entity that would be recognized as such by itself. It is only our interpretation of an event and our belief system and the world view that makes us perceive it as "evil". We have been taught that "bad things are evil". What if that had never been taught? What if we were taught from birth that killing is not evil? What if we were taught that it is only destroying the physical body and doesn't really kill anything at all? That the spirit can never be killed? That we create our own reality and nothing ever happens "to us" that we do not create, or draw to us? It is what we have been taught and accept as truth, simply put, that we believe evil is evil.
