Faust - Evil

 

            
             Evil is a very vague topic, it can consist of many things, a person's action, a person's way of thinking, an attitude, a feeling, a sense, it could be anything really. But what could cause a thing of this magnitude? Many things, one of which that has a great role in doing so is desire. Desire can grow into evil very subtly, so subtly that it can occur without the person's knowledge. A person, who desires something, usually will try to obtain what it is that they desire. If that person is denied that thing, they may gradually look towards evil to obtain it. This is the case with many people. Mostly in people who are weak minded, or have lack of faith and will power. There are many examples of this power in today's society, in literature new and old, and in our everyday actions.
             In today's society, you hear stories in the news that might come across as evil. And some that give a strong feeling of disgust. Many of the actions that provoked those strong feelings derive from a simple desire that may have been denied from that person. For instance not long ago, a girl was kidnapped in the town of Lancaster. She was then raped, and left for dead. The person who committed this horrible crime was probably denied the experience of love, and sexual pleasure at one time, and after a while, the feelings, of rejection, and denial built up, and lead the person to evil. And because this person had a weak mind it led the person believe that what he had done wasn't wrong, and that it was the only way he could achieve what he wanted. Another example of this evil desire, is in the country of is Israel & Palestine. Palestine, desire its land back, that had been taking away a long time ago. When they were repeatedly denied their land back, they resorted to trying to take it back with minor threats, and attacks, when that didn't work, they started viciously attacking to the point were Israel must fight back to defend itself, and a war broke out between the two.
