Which ones are foolish? Which ones are evil. And … does it really matter?  - Episode 20 - Hour 2

THE THESIS: There are a lot more people who have simply been conned than people who are simply evil.

A REMINDER FROM HISTORY BY WAY OF C.S. LEWIS’S FICTION: ““I live in the Managerial Age, in a world of "Admin." The greatest evil is not now done in those sordid "dens of crime" that Dickens loved to paint. It is not done even in concentration camps and labour camps. In those we see its final result. But it is conceived and ordered (moved, seconded, carried, and minuted) in clean, carpeted, warmed and well-lighted offices, by quiet men with white collars and cut fingernails and smooth-shaven cheeks who do not need to raise their voices. Hence, naturally enough, my symbol for Hell is something like the bureaucracy of a police state or the office of a thoroughly nasty business concern." - C.S. Lewis, The Screwtape Letters

THE SCRIPTURE: 

Isaiah 5:20 - “Woe to those who call evil good and good evil, who put darkness for light and light for darkness, who put bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter.”

Numbers 32:13 - “The Lord’s anger burned against Israel and he made them wander in the wilderness forty years, until the whole generation of those who had done evil in his sight was gone.”

Psalm 92:5-7 - 

5 How great are your works, Lord,

    how profound your thoughts!

6 Senseless people do not know,

    fools do not understand,

7 that though the wicked spring up like grass

    and all evildoers flourish,

    they will be destroyed forever.
