I was really hoping to provide a longer response to the last
posts on the Lucifer principle proposing evil as a survival
mechanism. In the meantime (assuming I get around to it at all)
the post on the Christian Coalition provides a good example of
the relativity of evil.
For members of this organization, it's an act of the highest
morality to oppose legislation that would lessen bullying of
homosexual children. For them, supporting the act is evil. But
for others, it's the position of the Christian Coalition that's
evil.
So which side do we listen to in applying the Lucifer principle?
