Comments by "Peter deWolf" (@StoneShards) on "The Psychology of Pure Evil | Michael Malice" video.

  1. Evil is the human face of disorder. Nature knows no evil. Cosmos is in Order. The dynamic processes of Nature find reflection in the minds of men, where desire bends perception. Discomfort becomes "bad". That which causes discomfort is anthropomorphized, given a FACE, by which to know it. The greater discomfort is caused by the greater "bad", having a more fearsome FACE. Pretty soon "bad" is not longer a suitable term, yielding to "evil". The human experience of existence is "suffering", so discomfort, disturbance is an ever-present companion. There are myriad possible responses--especially judgements--that can occur to a person depending on his natural proclivities. The sum total of experience trains the psyche on a true course or a more or less distorted one, depending on the quality of guidance encountered. If the "right" things get twisted just the wrong way, a person may train himself to enjoy...pain, for instance. If everything gets twist just the right way we may see clearly and without emotional attachment the operations of natural law. All this fearful talk about EVIL! Eh..."He who smelt it dealt it."
