I have been on my own little crusade for the past 25 years to identify what is evil andwhat is not. I have come up with many different answers leading to sound solutions formyself. The first thing is to be able to identify it. Everyone can easily see its destructiveforce through certain acts such as the killing, stealing, or telling a lie.

These three acts are often justified in certain conditions for instance in war, or theexecution of a criminal. Dissecting these three acts of evil are very difficult to do. Evilhas been around from the beginning of mankinds existence. We see and relate to it inour everyday living hopefully overcoming it.

Evil In A Parking Lot

Recently a friend an myself decided we would go to dinner together. Our choice was togo to El Pollo Tropical. When we arrived it was rather early in the evening and therewere many parking spaces. I pulled into the center of a group 7 of the spaces, it wasalso the closest available spot to the entrance to the restaurant. As we were leaving,evil began to encroach upon us.

Fading Paint

An older Mercedes had pulled into the empty spot directly in front of the space I hadparked in. The car was not only an older car, but the sun had caused the paint to befaded and discolored. The driver of the Mercedes was just sitting with his door open andfeet on the ground talking on a cell phone.

As we got into our car to leave my friend made a comment, There is no reason foranyone to have a car and let the paint fade, as the paint on that Mercedes. He couldeasily have waxed and taken care of the car to prevent fading.

When I heard this comment. I responded, The car is old, maybe he just bought the car,or maybe the car belongs to a friend, why place a judgment on the man and his car,

neither of us no anything about either one.

God Only Knows Why Should I Pretend To Be Him

I thought to myself, only God and the people that have owned the car know why the carpaint was in the shape it was in. Surely it was not my responsibility to be concerned withsomething I could do nothing about. The conversation continued and I became

distracted. I started to back out of the parking space slowly when all of a sudden I see apick up truck with two people in it screaming, at me, saying that I nearly hit them!!

Stop So I Can Intimidate You

They stopped their pick up straddling the two spaces next to my parking space in alocation that prevented me from backing up my car. I had to stop, but I thought theywould just relocate their pickup. But I was wrong, so I pulled about 4 feet back into mysame spot.

Then finally they moved and parked into the empty space next to where I was parked,even though there were 6 other empty spots right adjacent to where I was parked. Itwas obvious they were confrontational and filled with anger. I knew that if Iacknowledged their anger I could be drawn into a confrontation. Where that would endwas anybodies guess. I concluded an apology would only exacerbate the situation.So they finally parked in the space next to where I was parked and they were filled with

anger. I backed out of my spot and left the area.

Anger The Foundation For All Evil

Unfortunately anger happens way to much in our society. Anger begins when there is adesire to control the actions of others and others do not do what they desire. I am notgoing to speculate what I would have done if I had been in their position, but I assureyou I would not have been angry. There is no forgiveness in anger.

Now I ask myself a few questions to analyze the evil in this incident.

My answers

Was I or anyone else responsible for taking care of the Mercedes?------------------NoWas my friend evil for blaming the care owner for not taking care of the car?------NoWas I evil for not seeing the pickup?-----------------------------------------------------------NoWere the occupants of the pickup evil for being angry?-----------------------------------NoCould more evil have evolved from this situation?-----------------------------------------Yes

What is your opinion, do you see any evil at all with this incident?Was I evil for not confronting the people in the Pickup?

Jesusism

To understand evil I use a guide that I call Jesusism which means that I use theteachings of Jesus to live by as much as I possibly can. I invoked two of his principles inthis action, one is do not be angry at my brother and number two is to forgive the partiesinvolved. By doing this I am not drawn into the hostility of the moment and do not feel Ihave to control the actions of others. The actions of others will lead them to their ownend of the road. I am not God.

What is Evil

I also realize spirits are developed from individual attitudes combined with words beingused. The only anecdote to the evilness of the spirit is an understanding of the truth that

had just existed. The evil spirit that was established came from actions reflectingattitudes from the words used by all parties to create hostility and disagreement.

Seeing The Demons

By breaking down this incident at El Pollo Tropical it is possible for me to see the forcesof demons are real by identifying the demons involved. First of all, a natural spiritcaused me to park my car in the closest space I could find to the restaurant door, andthe Mercedes owner to do the same.

My friends demon was created from an all knowing desire to have control over the lives

of others, in other words to be controlling over everything and everyones actions. This isthe all knowing demon also know as control freak. The demon makes the personbelieve they have to have an answer for everything without having any tolerance foraccepting that others have a right to be different. It is as though they are a God tothemselves, all knowing to their own surroundings.

My friends demon distracted me from seeing the pickup truck and became a part of memomentarily. The occupants of the pickup were caught up in the same demon as myfriend in thinking they can control all aspects of everyones behavior. The way they see itis I should have seen them and if they were driving my car this would not have

happened. With the control demon there is no room for mistakes since there is noforgiveness at the moment the incidence occurs.

Orchestrating Demons

Satan has a way of orchestrating Demons to create chaos in our lives and God allowsthis to happen for us to learn about life and His creation. We usually do not look at Godas the creator of these incidences but end up blaming each other for our own inequities.When this happens we fall right into the hands of Satan.

Over Coming Evil

Jesus teaches me how to overcome Satan and his demons. The way I see it, Satan isbehind all evil actions and the spirit of Jesus behind all good actions. I do not put blameupon anyone for the act of evil only on Satan and his demons. Unfortunately, evil hasinfected everyone.

The spirit of Jesus has been around since the beginning as well. To begin to understandevil I have to have a guide or standard or else I do not know if I am doing good or evil.

4/4

My guide or standard to see evil is from the words Jesus Christ speaks from theGospels of Matthew and John.

I also realize the war of good vs evil began when people first inhabited this globe we allcall home.
