yes, if the question starts with "Christians:" there is often a brutal and ugly attack on Christians... BTW, those run 5:1 vs those which begin with "Atheists:"
While I hesitate to call anyone evil, often this is the only word which fits the bill.
Examples?
I will omit Christains for the sake of expedience and just quote the *question*:
How loud did Jesus grunt when he was taking a dump, was he heard in the next village ?
Jesus did not mind being crucified, as he was getting nailed regularly by the 12 apostles ?
Did Joseph pimp Mary and how much did he charge ?
Are Christians just cattle in need of worming ?
Should you be forced by law to wear electric collars to aid in your deprogramming ?
There are dozens more...
All of the above were asked by self-professed atheists (most with AM in the avatar name) True atheists I know are kind, loving and compassionate people who are open minded and tolerant, but there is obviously a faction which is anything but.
Ridiculing other faiths is abhorrent to me, just as is ridiculing atehists.

No.
There is no good or evil in any person. To say that there is is to absolve a person of their actions by saying the seed of the act was in them since birth, whereas saying that someone did a bad thing gives them accountability.
I think some people are bad, but "evil" is too absolute for my liking.

Yes most of the time I can but I miss a few! The few I miss are the sly ones that know how to hide their evil but it comes out sooner or later! Some can control a polygraph machine by their sheer calmness.
My pisces sister can do that!

Sensing good and evil is in all of men. Yet, what happens is many who are evil in nature become so far from truth, they see themselves as always right and everyone else wrong.
As for sensing or discerning the good and evil and people, often times deception is involved. For there are many wolves in sheep's clothing ready to deceive and destroy that which God loves. These are they who's god is of this world and they do his bidding. From such, turn away.

Pangel Drove the nail home!
I was a sucker to all she mentioned!
The question and answers won't show you the good from the bad, but it sure can make you *sense* it after a considerable amount of time reading more question and answers from your phantom!

Yes. I try to take the sting out of some of the more evil intellectual posts. The truth sets us free (this applies to both atheists and believers:)

I haven't seen anyone in this forum who seems "evil." Even some of the more notorious trolls often seem more ill than evil.

Sometimes, TD...some show it, while others hide it. If I sense evil in a person, he or she has seriously made it obvious.

I wouldn't say good and evil rather rude or sincere.
