What is it about?
Moral evil is one of the most compelling problems of our age, yet the least understood. Independent scholar Thomas White marshals a wide variety of sources, demonology, theology, philosophy, crime reports, literary criticism, novels, poetry, psychology, films, and history, to argue that moral evil is an objective force. This essay is a journey to the Dark Side, but based on reason not superstition, or the Occult.

Why is it important?
Because moral evil is such a compelling problem, a correct understanding of its nature is essential in order to confront it as more than a mere psychological aberration. Understanding moral evil has real world consequences. Perhaps moral evil cannot be "cured" as if it were a "mental illness", but is something more fundamental , which cannot be so easily remedied.
