Evil is Sane?

Question

I have just watched a video on the trial of Jeffery Dahmer, how can anyone like that be considered sane??? if he is/was just evil, then surely there is just good, and only good somewhere?? is there such thing as serial nice guy that tries to do nice everywhere he goes even at his own expense??

jaillite - I would like to see this house you had these terrible experiences in, really i would. "the demon thinks of the Lord and shudders" I believe in he and the demon will shudder!!

Answer 1

serial and nice are oxymorons

Answer 2

Whoa! there, philosophy junkie.

Sane is a medical term, and is measured against standards of some committee's idea of normality. Evil is an abstract, or possibly religious, concept and can only be a relative function.

They cannot, therefore, to be considered to have any common ground. It is more likely that an insane person will have the urge to be evil ( IE. behave antisocially) but you can be insane and not be evil and you can also be sane, and be evil.

Answer 3

Keep in mind, there is no such thing as relative good and evil; that defies logic. There has to be a basis for evil if one says there is a basis for good otherwise we no basis for law. Our parents knew that and thus the reason our country is in a rapid decline because no one takes responsibility.

In history there have been a rare few , they are userly called Saints, And history has recorded the actions of them , But one mans Saint can be another mans demon, few were there at the time to record there actions when away from there puplic demeanor, or would have the courage to question the puplic veiw. To be awarded a Sainthood many would have died for .even spent there whole life trying to acheive it

Please Google Bill Wiese - 23 Minutes in Hell. You can watch his video online for free for buy his book at Wal-Mart for about $11.00.

This is an incredible testimony of Bill Wiese and his "23 Minutes in Hell".
Bill was supernaturally placed in Hell BUT not as a casual observer, BUT as someone who was not saved.
He recounts all the horrid details with such precision.
His soul was returned to his earthly body with a warning and message for all.
Please view the entire testimony prior to forming your opinion.

Since I read this book on 12-22-06 in one night (I couldn’t put it down) I decided to completely change my life b/c I have been visited and tormented by demons once in 1996 and then constantly 2003-2005. Reading his book and listening to his video has only strengthened what my heart has always known: That Demon, Evil Spirits and HELL are real.
In Oct 2005, I left my husband b/c the demons would not let me sleep unless I slept with a cross. My ex-husband was a believer as I am, but he felt he was strong enough as a Christian to pray the demons away. I asked him if we could sell the house and move to another house, but b/c he was laid off, he said that it was not a smart decision. So I put a cross and angels in the living room and bedroom and I swear that only make the demons angrier and determined to haunt me. I begged and pleaded w/him to help me find someone who is a stronger and closer to GOD than us. Someone like an exorcist, I was desperate. Well he took this as an insult to his manhood and faith and refused to do so. So I continued to sleep every night with a cross on a long necklace clutching it and praying to GOD EVERY night that the demons would leave me alone. By the way the demons only bothered me at nighttime when I would try to sleep. When we were dating, there were 2 different situations that the demons made themselves known during the day and he was aware of this. I fell into depression, started going to counseling and started taking antidepressants. I finally had to make a hard decision to leave my husband and move out b/c I was being tormented by the demons in that house. He has been in that house for 17 years.
Sadly his first wife had similar torments and she went crazy and he got custody of their kids. I told him that I will not stay and be driven crazy by them like his first wife. The irony of this is that his 2 daughters told of their experiences with the demons in the house.
I could go on and on but YOU have to make the decision if you want to hear more. There are many, many people who have had real experiences and they can be found on the internet. By the way I am happy, at peace, demon free and am no longer depressed or take any antidepressants. GOD is responsible for that and Bill Weiss opened my eyes even more.

Answer 6

We are all capable of both what we call evil and what we call good. We detest most in others whatever we can accept least about ourselves. We all do what we believe is "right" - including people like Dahmer and anyone else the majority might label "evil". All things in life are relative and colored by our perceptions and conditioning.

Answer 7

In the legal sense only (which is important when trial is concerned), sanity is defined as knowing the difference between right and wrong. You are legally insane if the courts find that you cannot tell the difference between right and wrong.

But yeah, that crap was craaaazzy!!!!
