Baron, from below, what is your definition of "evil" that is distinct from "fear"?

The question of "evil" has been haunting me for awhile, what is your take on this?

A couple of my thoughts:
1. The opposite of love is fear, I'm willing to add more dimensions to this, like perhaps good and evil and make it into a diamond. But what is the source of good or evil?
2. If we are to believe in evil, does that necessitate the belief in demons? And then if we believe in demons, don't we also have to believe in angels?

I'll leave it at that, your thoughts?

    • Sure...fear is not evil. Christ himself was fearful with the foreknowledge of what awaited him in - BaronVonZemo - 2:06am 9/20/25
