There IS True Evil In The World

They are NOT Red, Wrinkly Faced Demons

Hey folks,

Edmund Emil Kemper, David Richard Berkowitz, John Wayne Gacy, Jr., Jeffrey Dahmer, all have something in common. They were all well liked. They were all loved by those around them. Those around them were all SHOCKED to learn the truth. They were all Evil.

True Evil, if you care to recognize it or not, does exist in the world. They walk among us. Truth is, they are not Hollywood Evil. They are real. They are NOT Red Wrinkly Faced Demons sent from Hell. They are your Neighbor. The Bus Driver for your kids school. The Clerk that checked you out yesterday. The Truth is, you may even LIKE the person that will become, or is, the next Edmund Kemper.

These individuals are charismatic, influential, and very likable. Why do you think people will willingly give up their lives to follow them. Jim Jones, Charles Manson, David Koresh, were so charismatic that they got people from all walks of life to Murder, and kill themselves for their new found "leaders."

Now we have this story, The "Santa Clause Killer." Here is a guy, like the rest, that was well liked. His neighbors reported seeing him walking a dog around the neighborhood and working on his lawn. The normal stuff we all do. He also served regularly as an usher at evening Mass at Holy Redeemer Catholic Church in Montrose, the Los Angeles Times reported.

Police were told things like: "I'm just — this is shocking," Detanna told the Times. "He was the nicest guy you could imagine. Always a pleasure to talk to, always a big smile."

Yeah, well this "nicest guy" dressed up as Santa, went to a Christmas Party, knocked on the door, and shot an Eight year old girl in the face. He then proceeded to enter the house and just start randomly shooting people. He then set the house on fire, drove away to another location and, thankfully, killed himself.

Bruce Pardo's ex-wife and her parents were believed to be among the dead. That 8 year old Girl that he shot in the face, a 16 year old Girl shot in the back and a Woman that tried to escape by jumping out the window, are expected to make full recoveries.

So what was it that set Pardo off? Some are speculating that it was the bitter Divorce. After one year of marriage? I doubt it. But he did not have a Criminal History, was an Usher at a Catholic Church, and no signs that he was capable of such things. Well, Dahmer actually made the statement, "I should have stayed with God. I tried and failed and created a holocaust." He killed 17 people before he was discovered. He knew God.

The Devil was there when the Bible was written. He can quote it word for word. He has seen God up close and personal. Yet, he IS Evil. Some people will lay down their lives for others. Some people will take other's lives. The Spectrum of Life is not really that vast. Most of us live in the center. Living our happy lives, without a single solitary clue as to what reality REALLY is. But there are two ends to that same Spectrum. Those that are born to serve God, Right, and Justice, and those born to do Evil. Sounds like a horror movie I know, but then someone like Bruce Pardo comes along and reminds us, Evil really does exist in the very real world.
