Is it not enough to know the evil to shun it? If not, we should be sincere enough to admit that we love evil too well to give it up.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I do all the evil I can before I learn to shun it? Is it not enough to know the evil to shun it? If not, we should be sincere enough to admit that we love evil too well to give it up.
Much that we call evil is really good in disguises; and we should not quarrel rashly with adversities not yet understood, nor overlook the mercies often bound up in them.
Having received the Spirit of Christ to know good from evil, we should always choose the good.
This is the very worst wickedness, that we refuse to acknowledge the passionate evil that is in us. This makes us secret and rotten.
There is such a thing as doing good that evil may come.
There is nothing that makes us feel so good as the idea that someone else is an evil-doer.
Evil is important for us to look at, in my opinion, only insofar as it makes us look at our own actions and make us wonder, 'Am I participating in some kind of human evil that I really should stop doing?'
Verily, we know not what an evil it is to indulge ourselves, and to make an idol of our will.
I feel it's in people's nature to want to stop evil and embrace the good.
What we call 'evil' doesn't necessarily deserve any kind of respect or understanding, by any means; it just deserves an acknowledgement of its complexity so we can better understand it - so we can help prevent it.
