Just because it's an interesting discussion, and since AI directly adressed me: some people believe there is a god, but no devil. That doesn't mean there's no evil. So I think there could be a devil without a god. Purely theoretical of course, since I don't believ either exist.
Anyway, I don't think something 'evil' must have a devil behind it, and I don't think a devil needs a good counterpart per se.
Good and evil is really in the ee of the beholder; I don't think any terrorist thinks he is doing something evil. |
