I don’t believe there’s evil, its a term for scaring children or riling up people against each other in contexts like religion or other groups.

That's an argument I've made many times, and on an abstract level, I'd still say that. If I'd written the original post I might've chosen a different word, just cuz saying 'evil' seems a bit rude and I'm a nice guy. On the other hand, the opposition is trying to stomp us into submission, and they're willing to kill about it and then call the dead terrorists, and I can't work up a good head of quibble or hesitation about calling that evil.

Guess my supply of Minnesota nice is running low. But I'd still buy you a beer.
