I’m not sure what point the author was trying to make?
Are you kidding? I think he made his point well... people tend to think they are “good” b/c they are not murdering someone or stealing thousands of dollars or some more obvious wrong, but there are myriad ways people commit evil everyday...
I think bearing false witness is one of the worst and is a form of murder.

That Evil is not an extreme but rather a mundane condition. How one responds or regards himself after doing one, some or many of the things on the articles list determines the degree to which one might be regarded as ‘evil’. Acts don’t necessarily determine evil, it is more of an ‘attitude’ that comes of displacing God’s Truth rather than accepting it.
