Part of me just thinks being Evil is cool. Perhaps i'm a bit obsessed with bad-boy culture. But I'm afraid I really will be bad, so far, I have only sins of the flesh. I'm afraid I'll become a thief, or worse a murderer, or even a gangster, or assasin. I remember when I hated all things like this. Working seems so distant and far away, marriage, love, I've just become jaded. How do I go back? Return to innocence.

you can never return to innocence...however you can work on your own ethics and morals...i don't believe it has to do with being evil or good persay...i guess for me...there are just some lines i won't cross...i don't follow anyone elses book or rules on it...i just know when something doesn't feel right and that is when i question if it is something i should be doing...set those parameters for yourself...i don't think you can do everything at once but find one part of your life and really work on that...first...good luck

Meditate. I guess.
Look at children, animals, get out into the woods, fields, whatever nature is around you.
I don't believe "sins of the flesh" are sins. It is about connecting with life, hopefully about love, and sometimes just carnal instinct.
But being a thief, murderer, gangster or assassin is usually wrong. there are times when I believe things are necessary, such as if you have to do it in order to live another day and there isn't any other alternative.
Being truly evil isn't cool because you don't value life, the most amazing thing there is because it somehow evolved from some chemical reactions and just the right conditions into amazing complexity. And everything has a soul.
Life is about love and learning everything you can. If you open yourself to all of it's beauty, and yes, even destruction like fires, volcanoes, tornadoes, etc, are part of the beauty of life, then I think you will begin to feel better. Always think of how a little thing can change someone's world. Do something to help others, like take some food to a shelter, volunteer to help a cause... Just allow yourself to love and experience the world.

Think about the consequences of those things... the people you would hurt including yourself. Is it worth spending several years or even a lifetime in jail because you got bored and thought being evil for a day was cool? Is it worth taking a loved one away from another person? What if someone did that to you?

Embrace it... that will make it go away.
Remember the Yin Yang... you can only achieve balance by accepting the dark and light together...
If you ignore your own desires, they will consume you.
Being "evil" is totally cool - but it can get you into trouble if you are deluding yourself into thinking that you are some kind of saint...
You know what happens to "moral majority leaders"?
They get caught trying to have gay sex with cops in airport bathrooms...
Don't worry about the Gangsta thing - real gangstas won't put up with your white-boy crap...
they are oppressed and have to be in the culture... they don't do it to entertain themselves or the white people who try to emulate them.

How sad for you. I think you should try some volunteer work with children, or poor people. You should develop some empathy. Also, I'd avoid watching movies that glamorize the gangsta lifestyle and anything like porno or even videos. They make it easier to embrace evil: they make it seem distant and remote. There have been studies that show this, and the kids at Columbine are a good example, too.

Get your nose back into the Big Book, call your sponsor and go to a meeting. Don't drink and come back tomorrow.
