What is the meaning of Evil? How do you define it? What makes for an evil character? What is its source? Are we all evil, and is this . . . expected . . . normal? Is it as simple as selfish, self-centered pride, as grandiose as genocide?
What was God getting at when he told Cain that Sin (e.g., Evil) crouches outside his door and desires him, but that Man must master it? Is British poet W. H. Auden in agreement when he wrote, "Evil is . . . always human and shares our bed and eats at our own table"?
