Don't know where he's coming from on this. To me, however, this is "a long run for a short slide," as they say in Texas.<BR/><BR/>What more does one need to know about evil other than it is anything that is contrary to what God says is right and good? I agree that everything contrary to this is "unsubmitted will." It's will unsubmitted to God.<BR/><BR/>Every time we do evil, or sin, it is an act of resistance to Him. We are all "truly evil" according to the Scriptures.<BR/><BR/>The narcissist, in my experience, is just not willing to accept this fact, despite ANY and ALL evidence to the contrary.benjyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07524319919318827068noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8897530668296079778.post-83990944384208204632007-11-10T10:09:00.000-06:002007-11-10T10:09:00.000-06:00i'd like to speak to this idea of evil/narcissism....i'd like to speak to this idea of evil/narcissism...<BR/>if this definition of true evil is correct (i'll admit, it has a certain ring to it), then false repentance is natural and/or easiest for us (i know that's certainly the case for me)--i.e. as a form of pain relief and release of the conscience from guilt.<BR/>but, if that's true, how much MORE true it should be that true, grievous repentance over sin is not natural/easy for us.-B.(rianna)https://www.blogger.com/profile/05349113574776260023noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8897530668296079778.post-24767482878947668252007-11-10T09:27:00.000-06:002007-11-10T09:27:00.000-06:00Reading this post only fuels further my desire to ...Reading this post only fuels further my desire to flee from my unacknowledged sense of my own evil nature. Just kidding. Interesting thought, though. How many people are truly evil in this world, according to Peck's definition, which seems pretty useful? Or is the point of the definition more to help people root out parts/hints of evil tendencies in their own lives? This one will stick with me.<BR/><BR/>Brent, I'm officially hooked on your blog.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10909820423386074865noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8897530668296079778.post-13313246888250906112007-11-09T15:21:00.000-06:002007-11-09T15:21:00.000-06:00i know from personal experience that it is a lot h...i know from personal experience that it is a lot harder to get comments on serious, in depth posts than on funny, random stories. people seem to like other people better when they are funny, imagine that. :) i'd like to encourage you to persevere, in spite of lack of commentary. i appreciate your insight, looking forward to the next part!Lizhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07920842262012756265noreply@blogger.com
