Famous quotes with Was evil

• What was lost sight of was that the evil of the past, whether of slavery or of Jim Crow, was evil not because it was done by whites to blacks, but because it was done by some human beings to other human beings. The purpose of the law was to end evil acts

  Harry V. Jaffa
• Nowadays, of course, progressive theologians are all sex; they say it's a good thing, the biblical position was not that sex was evil, but that it was good, and that it's alright.    But now, look here, what is the real point here? The proof of the pudding is in the eating. What can you get kicked out of the church for? Any church — Presbyterian, Roman Catholic, Episcopalian, Baptist, and the synagogue I think too. What's the real thing for which people get kicked out, excommunicated?    For "envy, hatred, malice, and all uncharitableness"? "Pride, vainglory, and hardness of heart"? Owning shares in munitions factories? Profiting off slums? No You can be a bishop and live in all those sins openly. But if you go to bed with the wrong person, you're out.    So one has to conclude that, for all practical purposes, the church is a sexual regulation society; and it really isn't interested in anything else. Christianity is more preoccupied with sex than even Priapism or Tantric Yoga [are]. Because that's the that counts, that's the sin, the really important sin.

  Alan Watts
• May we not say, perhaps, that the evil man is annihilated because he wished to be annihilated, or that he did not wish strongly enough to eternalize himself because he was evil? May we say that it is not in the other life which causes a man to be good, but rather that causes him believe in it? And what is being good and being evil? These states belong to the sphere of ethics, not of religion; or rather, does not the good though being evil pertain to ethics, and the good [forgivable] though doing evil, to religion?

  Miguel de Unamuno
• She finally came to admit sadly that the human race in its weakness demanded government and all government was evil because human nature was basically weak and weakness is evil.There is no such thing as a good government. There never was. There can't be.

  Katherine Anne Porter
• After fifty-five years of dedicating his life and work to the story of ethical systems, Sol Weintraub had come to a single, unshakable conclusion: any allegiance to a deity or concept or universal principal (sic) which put above decent behavior toward an innocent human being was evil.

  Dan Simmons
