YES EVIL EXISTS. IT'S OUT THERE. AND IT IS NOT GEORGE BUSH.
The Awful Truth

"The massacre of 32 students and teachers on the campus of Virginia Tech University forces us once again to confront the reality of moral evil. The moral category of evil is indispensable in this case--requiring us to make a firm moral judgment about the heinous, murderous, grotesque, abhorrent actions that now seizes the nation's conscience.
The late Alan Bloom wrote twenty years ago that 'There is one thing a professor can be absolutely certain of: almost every student entering the university believes, or says he believes, that truth is relative.'
Well, look into those stunned and hurting faces of students at Virginia Tech. Those are not the faces of moral relativists. They know the awful truth. These acts were evil.
The tragic reality is that this one man caused death and pain beyond human calculation on his murderous rampage. Let's pray for these grieving families and a traumatized campus--and let's remember that the difference between good and evil really matters."
