Men (and women and trans and fluid gender) people can do a lot of evil deeds. We have seen it through history, we see it today. Are there people who ARE evil? I don't think so. I mean, I would certainly say that someone like Adolph Hitler makes me think there are, but I wonder...and I am reminded that Hitler, too was made in God's image, but did NOT grow in God's likeness. Did he not grow in God's likeness and, quite the opposite, was responsible for the death and torture of millions because he was missing something, as sociopaths are said to be missing the ability to experience empathy? Did he do these things because somehow evil got inside him? And does that make HIM evil or was it his ACTIONS that were evil? Does it matter?
That has nothing to do with anything right now except that the second book in the
Detective P.T. Marsh series is called
The Evil Men Do. And there is a lot of sorrowful evil in this one. For some reason I wasn't as caught up in it as the first, hence four stars. But I will try the next one.
