Unfortunately, dealing with—and attempting to overcome—the forces of evil is a pervasive problem in the real world as well.Explaining Evil addresses incidents of evil from ancient times to modern day around the globe. Concepts of evil within the big three religions—Christianity, Judaism, and Islam—are examined, as well as in Chinese philosophy and Native American beliefs.
