The Round Earthers Society – Episode 26: What Is Evil?
Do evil people exist? What is the difference between someone who is is inherently evil and someone who does evil things? Is there a difference?
Jesse and Zach tackle the great big topic of evil. We feel like true evil exists but does it really? Was Hitler inherently evil or did circumstance cause him to do do the things he did?
