He was actually handing me his probation report to read prior to release as he was so proud of how far he had come. He had also read the report. I told him to leave the report on my desk and I’d read it later - when I read it it told of all the crimes he had committed (been caught.admitted) which was opposite to what he told me. I’ve learned there is no point arguing with distorted thinking/reasoning/delusion we can’t change their minds. Even seasoned psychiatrists/psychologists have a tough time trying to modify/improve that type of thinking. We were a sex offending treatment centre at the time (many years ago) and there is no “cure.” Over decades of electric shock treatment/castration/frontal lobotomy etc when I worked there they were putting them on prozac. I asked why and was told it reduced impulse by approx 1 second which they hoped was enough time to get a window to their thoughts to decide not to act on that impulse. I don’t know if that was successful or what has been tried since (was over 20 years ago).

Jesus Christ wants a personal relationship with you through the Holy Spirit, not religion and blind faith. You see, we all have sinned, and have broken God’s law (The Ten Commandments). Wrong doing deserves justice and must be punished (just like how a criminal has to pay for the crime they have committed) but God saved us from the eternal punishment of our sins by sending His Son Jesus Christ, fullness of God in flesh, to pay the penalty for us by dying on the cross and resurrecting, so that we may have everlasting life. Now for you to accept the free gift of grace, you must repent of your sins and put your faith in Jesus Christ and Bible says that His Blood will cover all of your sins, you will be forgiven, saved from eternal punishment, and be given everlasting life. By faith you will receive the Holy Spirit, become born again, know Jesus personally and He will transform your heart and clean you from the inside out. Turn away from sin, read the Bible, pray for the Holy Spirit to fill you and change you, obey the Word. Much love and God bless you!

We live in a world where trust is necessary to survive. For example, you trust other drivers will stop at the red light, or your boss will pay you for your labor. Yes, trusting people will open the door to betrayal, but there can be no love, trust, or deep relationships without giving folks a chance. Moreover, evil doesn't always need a reason. It creeps up on folks unknowingly and grips them by the spirit. If a soldier kills an innocent person because his commander told him to, is he evil, or his commander, or both? My takeaway is to be extremely careful about your thoughts and all people.

Peterson believes in teaching people to be less trusting improves wellbeing for most people who come into therapy (or at least, he wants them to understand the psychologly of bad people so they won't get hurt). Most psychologists currently disagree with Peterson on this one. Textbook counseling almost always emphasizes teaching their clients how to trust and teach them the world is safe. We are adults now; we are not the helpless 5 year old getting abused by our family anymore. Sure there are bad people in the world but there's very little they can do to harm adults with even half way decent boundaries. I'm 35 and the amount of "evil people who have completely destroyed my life" is ZERO. They really are not very scary.

Take away: STUDY how these people work, and LEARN TO RECOGNIZE THEM. Then, keep them out of your life.

This really describes how ALL evil develops, from the most graphic to the more "acceptable" (say, alcoholism or drug abuse). We willingly violate our conscience a little bit at a time, pushing ourselves further and further along inch by inch, until one day we wake up and we're miles away from where we started. This is why it's so important to guard our thoughts and actions at the beginning, because almost anything can spiral out of control if we don't draw clear lines that we REFUSE to cross under any circumstances.

@mh60648

I don't think 'pushing' is the (only) verb here. I think there is a 'pulling' there towards a very strong desire, and with every pull, the person lets go of a little bit more of what keeps them from directly going all the way. The thing with addictions is that the more we give in to them, the less pleasure and relief they offer, and the more we suffer whatever it is we try to compensate with the addiction. The suffering and the need for compensation pull the person apart because the relief and the suffering are obviously related. When one of the two goes beyond its previous boundery, so does the other as a reaction to it. The person is pulled beyond its earlier boundary on the addiction side, which makes the dark side become even darker, creating a downwards spiral in two opposite extremes moving away from the center. What is missing is a human core strong enough to stay centered and remain 'human'.

There was another serial killer either in Russia or Eastern Europe - I think he was known as the Chess Board Killer. He was a happy out going little boy until he had an accident being smacked pretty hard over his forehead (pre-frontal lobe area) by a swing in a park / playground. His doctor checked him out and couldn't see anything too alarming apart from a pretty impressive bruise and lump. It wasn't long after this incident that he started to become very moody and withdrawn, his whole personality changed. As he grew older it became worse - he was very self isolated. This breaks my heart, to think that he'd have most likely led a happy and normal and productive life if it had not been for that freak accident as a little boy.

She wouldn’t work so moved from man to man to support her. That soon turned to prostitution, drug addiction and alcoholism. She had two kids. Her kids are messed up. She was living with an old man and got pneumonia, she used cocaine to help with the pain. It killed her. She made my life a misery as a child and by the time of her death, I hadn’t seen her in 20 years. I didn’t want my children anywhere near her.

As a diagnosed Sociopath and I wanna give my pov on this topic. I need to point out that we don't feel the private emotions (shame, guilt, remorse, empathy, etc.) We don't have a reason to feel those things. We aren't emotionless, but our emotions are limited to certain extend. I can't speak for all Sociopaths (we can be different), but each one of us can choose to be "good" or "evil". I personally am tempted in many ways, but I choose to not to be evil. Not because I feel sorry for others, but I understand that there are consequences and it leads to self-destruction. For me personally it's pathetic to take on someone younger/weaker! I might add, that we tend to create certain personalities based on another people. We tend to reflect others and do it well, we have a good quality of observation skills. We can manipulate easily, therefore we can be very persuasive. In many cases, emotions are learnt and are only layers, which if you were about to peel of, you'd find an empty person. Many of us are only empty creatures, hurt deeply in the past (mostly childhood). I personally visit the psychiatrist, so that I keep an actual person inside and not just a reflection of others. Our psychology is very difficult, but I chose to not to be evil (as I said already), but to even make good things/decisions and keep myself satisfied. Some of us on the other hand choose not to, what I do understand. Everyone chooses their own path and their own shit

You can't reference how you'd emotionally react to something when you're emotionally disconnected from reality. It's like trying to imagine a color you cannot see; the frame of reference is gone. So I have to be careful in those moments to do what's best for everyone but myself. I find it's easy to do good things out of spite.

I'm here after watching The Hello Kitty case for the third time. I just can't believe how such people exist. I'm scared. But, what these videos (of true crime) have taught me, is that we should ALL appreciate our lives. Whatever good or bad things and people come across it, it's our life and it couldn't be better at the moment. The purpose of our lives is to improve ourselves, and improve other people's lives as well. We're all here to learn, and to teach each other this important lesson. I wish you (whoever it is) good luck and a true love for the life that you have and to be grateful for it. Thank you

My daughter fell in love with a good looking cult leader, the abuse starts small with words, but keeps elevating, it got so severe, my daughter was beaten until she was unconscious, woken back up, beaten again. My daughter refused to leave him and they non stop traveled to avoid me finding them. Luckily they were in a state that the victim doesn't have to press charges, he beat her in public, a witness pressed charges and I got the phone call to come get my daughter because he was in jail and she was homeless and broke. After nearly 2 years in jail (out because of over crowding), he now stalks us. The police are on our side, but the DA won't do anything, despite numerous online, detailed threats, of him wanting to kill my daughter and our family. I don't know why we don't have laws that put evil people in jail for life! Especially when there is so much evidence against them (he did this to other females as well, it is documented).

The terror Ted Buddy caused for teenage girls in our Utah community was real. My husband went to high school with a girl T. B. Murdered. I think it may have been T.B. Who followed our school bus full of girls from the drill team, cheerleaders and pep club after a high school basketball game. He was doing unmentionable things to freak us out. We were aware girls were disappearing. I also, know a woman in our neighborhood who accepted a ride from T. B. When she was a college student. He offered her a ride one other time. She declined. She’s lucky to be alive. He integrated himself into the community among his victims. Some people thought he was a normal, nice guy in their social circle. Evil man!

I spent several years in various chatrooms catfishing out predators, and it was very disturbing, you could easily tell after awhile the differences between those who just had some taboo fantasy they wanted to play out fictitiously (who were largely non-offenders) and those who were legitimately obsessed with carrying out their evil wills upon others. These deranged individuals aren't always the socially inept hygiene-challenged weirdos you typically would associate with such, some were outwardly friendly, charismatic, kind, personable, able to hold a conversation, and would take their time nurturing their own sadistic fantasies to reality. There were always justifications and measures of control they exacted over every aspect of their depraved lusts. It makes you realize that anyone could potentially be a predator, and it's not just the sleazy looking old man on the corner, it could be the sweet old lady in the church booth. I think it's equally important to recognize the capacity for great evil lies in the heart of every person, and that it also lies in your own heart as well. To recognize that evil can manifest itself anywhere is the first true step towards being able to combat it when it rears it's head.

He makes it a point not to be alone with anyone's kids. He's even rude at times and screams at them. Never saw him touch any kids. He was summarily dismissed. Even my kids would not believe it. Meanwhile, I knew another priest who had inappropriate relationship with a young vulnerable woman. He tried that with me much earlier and I reported him but no one made efforts to monitor him.

i think you missed the point of the video. the "largely non-offenders" as you put it, are walking down the path of becoming those who would carry out evil on others. There is no such thing as semi-innocence, and the ultimate answer is that we as humans have a moral responsibility to not explore "fictitiously playing out fantasy taboos. THATS the first lie you tell yourself. Thats why modern sex culture is so disgusting, and that's why throughout history it's been shunned. It has to be shunned, or every fetish under the sun will start to flourish. Any decent human being should understand the basic concept of self discipline, and restraining yourself, saying no to thoughts that pop into your head, because the more people say yes to "semi innocent fantasy thoughts" the worse those thoughts become, and the more they spread to others in society, and they stop being thoughts and turn into action. It's the whole basis behind conservatism, really. Don't stray from what God said, or you will find the devil. and in modern society these people are starting to be demonized. Look at the stigma behind the boomer types, the type of person that might say "the only type of sex you should have with your spouse is missionary position". Theres a reason that was taught. But no one wants to restrain themselves, so they convince themselves over generations that a conservative life style is foolish and wrong.

I always found the morality of killers interesting. They act and speak about their crimes like it's just another day at the office. When you hear them talk they can be so well mannered, articulate and even excited to tell you about themselves. How you and I would speak about say sports, music, video games, weather, relationships and all that. It's so trippy like dude you rape, torture and murder people. No shame, regret and compassion. The only regret I've heard from serial killers is typically their last kill or attempt that perhaps they failed leading to their arrest or something. Once in a while they regret their first as it's sloppy or/was risky. They refine their predatory nature, techniques and become better at killing. It's with a lot of trial and error. It's a sport or thrill to them. Sadists are from another planet.

Your comment reminded me of something I read years back and that I wish I could remember in more detail. I read about a man in prison who was a serial killer, I think for imprisoning, torturing and killing other men, and he learned that another man who had committed similar murders was going to be incarcerated in the same place which may have been death row. The first serial killer had expressed his eagerness to meet the second serial killer. I dont want to know what those two may have talked about and probably enjoyed talking about.

Working in a field that has many sociopaths, even though it was awful I learned what I needed to know. Not everyone thinks like you, don’t ever assume they have good intentions, telling the truth, etc. I was so naive it was beyond belief. I would wonder why I chose a profession that has such a high number of sociopaths, I truly believe it was divine intervention by God to open my eyes before I got terribly harmed.

Never let your friends talk you into 'minor shoplifting', never let the boyfriend talk you into making a 'private sex video' for him, never participate in any behavior that is unhealthy. All paths start with a first step. Now I'll watch the video and see if I've paralleled the message within?

Bundy's "pornography" was true crime pulp magazines and childrens underwear catalogue pages. That's apparently what got him excited.

Yes! I agree with everything here. Nicely said.

The problem is they’re taking over our classrooms now and normalizing what would be significantly “evil” to my grandparents. I just imagine where we’ll be when I’m a grandparent, and all of a sudden those same “French intellectuals” are back, but they’re actually allowed to get away with it. It’s like...ok at what point do we stand up a society and say “No more” THIS IS TOO FAR. We’ve crossed the line...when does that happen? If in 2 generations they reduced the age on consent down to these same elementary school children learning everything they are these days in the 3rd grade...where do we go then? Do we leave America to just let it burn in ruins? I mean, I think people forget we’re still a young nation by most standards, if you look at the rise and fall of other empires.

I LOVE YOUR BOOKS!!!!!!!!

Jordan, i hope you read this. Here in Chile, south america, we have children issues. IT was normalized S abuse younger than 12 years old. Just a while ago, in a Talcahuano school (Search colegio talcahuano niños abusados) and many others, the school board and some educators brought in some "Doctors" for S education... It ended up with a whole class of over dozen children being paraded without their clothes, made to do "poses", have their private parts "measured for health" and touched everywhere for a crowd of adults and what angers me the most, the story is being removed from the net to make it look like nothing really happened and it was exaggerated. And last thing i heard, after this incident blew up, dozens of schools are reporting the same thing according to their parents. And its getting worse every consecutive month. Lets not forget the Trans issue where "Tearches" attempt to convert kids and make them swear to not tell their parents. The same is happening with S abuse, the school employees make the kids not tell their parents, but this time, it was to much for the kids to hold and told them, then it blew up

as an 18 year old girl with three sisters, this is so terrifying. We don't just have to look out for thugs in a dark alley. We have to watch well dressed men in hallways. Family friends. restaurant workers. men of all ages. I used to think when I was little "if he has a lady walking with him that means I'm safe cuz creepy guys don't get married". if only it was that simple. when I was little I thought my dad was over protective cuz we had to tell someone if we were going out front to check the mailbox. now I just paused this video and realized me and my younger sisters are home alone, so I went and turned the house alarms on. I'm writing a research paper on the connection with feelings and instincts to our personality and identity, but I didn't think I would be so emotionally moved by this clip. so interesting and so terrifying

This is all so true. As someone who’s ex is currently imprisoned for breaking into a home and molesting a 5 year old girl….no one believed it. The night he came home and confessed needing an alibi, even I was shocked and thought no way. Even tho he was a living hell to me personally, he was super well known in our area and well thought of. Very charismatic. I was shocked that when I turned him in, the police told me there was a crime matching what I told them reported that night. But most of the town didn’t believe me. I should have known long before I did but I thought he was a just a cheater and drunk. Had us all fooled. I knew something wasn’t right when he openly plotted to murder his ex wife but since he drank all the time I really thought it was just drunken rambling. My eyes are open to it know and I have traumatic dreams more and more often about his release date coming up next year. I very much fear he will hunt me down and torture me and my family. Evil absolutely does exist and it hides itself in plain daylight. Unnoticed by many at times.

Theres a few things you can do. 1. Have you told his ex wife about his fantasy? She may need to be informed. 2. Arm yourself, according to the laws of the state you are in. Firearms are the great equalizer. 3. If firearms are a nogo, less than lethal options should be considered. 4. If he had been in prison and is now over 40 years old, his chance of reoffence does reduce with age. People get too old.

I tried but only got so far because she just doesn’t believe anything from my mouth. If she did, she’d be frightened rightfully so. The torture he’s brought up is oddly specific and graphic imo. I am definitely armed. I won’t say where I live but firearms are thankfully very legal here. I still worry I won’t have one close enough of every needed tho. He’s very sadistic and would prey for the most opportune time. Likely in my sleep or when I’m holding a kid and don’t have hands or leverage. It’s honestly very terrifying because we met each other in a bjj class and he’s a skilled fighter who’s much larger then me. I’d like to think I have nothing to worry about but he can be very obsessive. He watched this girl house for a while and I ended up involved without even knowing because he always encouraged us to go on nightly walks with our kids. I had no idea the walls were part of his stocking certain houses and learning patterns. He would also sneak out at night too :( he’s a a year older then me so he’ll be 36 this November and will have served 8 years in prison. I definitely pray he comes out changed but don’t count on it. The last thing he ever said on the phone to me from prison was a mouth is a mouth. It made me sick and hit the road so fast.

Evil tends to appear as attractive, which is what makes it so tempting to some people. From out of the mouth is the heart revealed. We all are capable of Good and Evil; we are all human. And the thing that keeps us from slipping is maintaining the balance within ourselves. I do believe that no one is born a criminal, and I do believe that some of the worst offenders are basically created by how they respond to extreme trauma. But as with all people, we are creatures of free will. I myself relate to What Dr Peterson was saying about bitterness and resentment toward the world, fantasizing about revenge, and violence. I have even prayed for the destruction of the world. Wanted to watch everything burn. But what kept from that path was a desire to love those who love me. After my dad died, I was more able to work on myself. After my childhood I was able to choose to avoid certain situations. After I lost my greatest love due to traumatic violent crime, I was able to start getting professional help. I find myself realizing I never really had any control over myself. I was in survival mode always, just trying to keep myself safe from everyone else. And I felt incredibly alone. I feel for anyone who loses themselves to that evil spirit. Where they feel so alone that they suddenly feel empowered to destroy everything around them, including themselves.

Spiritually, their consciences have become seared, which is why they have no qualms about perpetrating these crimes. I haven’t been the same since I watched the Sound of Freedom. We must keep spreading the word.

Actually choices lead to the other things. Thoughts only dictate your actions if you're weak minded. An intelligent disciplined person with evil thoughts and an intelligent disciplined person with good thoughts are interchangeable. Also we don't create our thoughts, they just appear, which is why we can choose whether or not to listen to them. Meaning, again, choice is the key here.

Well said Ian Simpson

Beautifully said. It's the battle field of the mind. James 1:12-15 Romans 12:2 We either wash our mind in light or darkness, and like losing weight investing building muscle or many other things it's a slow process so we don't really notice when a point of no return is passed. Like going to sleep we can't pinpoint the moment we went from awake to asleep but generally know in which state we are in. It's a spiritual battle between discipline and undisciplined in truth.

Mom says sin takes you further and lasts much longer than we intend. Lesson in life I often forget

Unfortunate, but fascinating discussion.

Evil is an INHERENT human trait. It will NEVER be eradicated.

This video, with Dr Petersons insights & commentary is truly frightening. I was married to a male who very slowly revealed, over time how depraved his thoughts were. I strongly suggested that he go to a counselor, as I couldn't bear to have him tell me about it anymore. He started seeing a counselor, I went to his first 2 appointments with him. I didn't know that he didn't go to any more appointments after that. He would lie to me, telling me that he was going to his counseling appointment, would be back home in an hour. Then, he started telling me that he had a desire to break someone's nose just for the experience. That was so disturbing. He started asking me if he could break my nose "just once". Then, it was, since he couldn't get my permission, he would do it while I was sleeping, "so it wouldn't hurt." I moved into the extra bedroom in our home, putting locks on the window & locks on the door. Then, he began threatening to BBQ the family dog if I wouldn't let him break my nose. I called his counselor about it, that was when I found out that he never went back to the counselor after the 2 appointments 6 months earlier. I couldn't take much more. One night I made a sincere attempt to talk with him, he only laughed at me, telling me I was deluded, I was the one with all of the problems & he was just a normal guy with fantasies. We were in our hot tub. When he was laughing as I tried to talk to him, I stood up to leave, to go into the house. That was the last thing I remembered. I woke up in the hospital 3 days later. I left, then, divorced him. 12 years after the divorce, people who I had traded babysitting with, contacted me to tell me that he had sexually molested their children. Maybe it shouldn't have shocked me, yet, it was so shocking. It made me happy that I had divorced him. I had known nothing about it, probably would have divorced him back then if I had known. I told the people that I had not even seen the pedo in over 10 years, that I didn't have any contact information for him. One of the people he molested when one of them was barely 2 years old, told our 4 children about it at a family party. If I had told our children they might have seen as me, bashing their father.

New agers blame their addictions? Interesting. I'm 6yrs sober from a pill addiction that started during the big oxycontin boom of the 2000's. I had to have surgery after many shouldveI known something would switch in my brain after I started taking the medication for legitimate pain. Infact, many ppl i knew wound up seeking out a cheaper more accessible drug, some passed away, went to jail and others were fortunate to be sober early on. I did notice that just because this person was using pills, that person wasn't always "evil" I noticed some were narcissistic, lost, etc. Addiction has many layers to it. It isn't always so black & white. And not all addicts blame others or other places and things. There are ppl who find it liberating to understand the why's, how's, etc They feel a duty to spend the rest of their life fighting to not ever become that addict again. Then there are those who don't care who they're killing by selling drugs, they are not good companies to be around... I could always see or feel how dark spirited they were... And still big pharma got a slap on the wrist as usual.
