Good vs. Evil
By Tommy Acosta

Yes, it’s true. Evil does lurk in the hearts of humankind.

Like those who profit from the degradation, misery, sorrow, and suffering of others.

And those who make money from the use and production of weapons and other things that kill.

Those who purposely cause wars to maintain their blood-soaked profits.

Those who take pleasure in giving pain and hurting others. Those who persecute people of different sexual persuasions.

Those who rape, kill, plunder, set people on fire, destroy homes and livelihoods, or injure others for pleasure.

Those who profit from producing foods that cause cancer and disease. Those who profit from the sale of drugs to treat the illnesses they cause.

Those who take advantage of the elderly and innocent, luring them into giving away their life savings to cold-blooded scams.

Even those who cheat people at the cash register or double or triple the price of services and items beyond their true worth.

Scam artists, thieves, looters, torturers, sex traffickers, organized crime members, exploiters, hard drug dealers—the list goes on.

And, of course, those who hate everything and everyone, regardless of who or what they are.

It makes one wonder why such evil is allowed to exist, makes one lose faith in humanity.
