Likely the most important gift that the Christians and Jews have provided the Western world directly, and all nations indirectly, is a profound sense of, wariness against, and true assessment of the place and influence of divine and human evil that courses through human veins.
We cannot defeat evil and become good and do good unless we face the primordial, metaphysical facts head on. We are rotten to the core, with some traces of potential good to build on, in our blighted souls.
Once we accept what we are, wicked sinners, and worry that that is our unalterable destiny, then we have a basic understanding of our status and nature. With Mavellonialist training, a person can go on to beat being a wicked sinner for life, and lead a moral, happy, loving, productive and intellectual life. That is how each of us may defeat evil in us and around us. There is a way out, and it works well for thousands of people.
