From the article:
Quote:
"Evil is endemic, it's constant, it is a potential in all of us. Just about everyone has committed evil acts," said Dr. Robert I. Simon, a clinical professor of psychiatry at Georgetown Medical School and the author of "Bad Men Do What Good Men Dream."

Now THAT I find as interesting as anything else. I wonder how Simon defines an "evil" act? I'll admit that I have done one or two things in my life that I'm not very proud of, but "evil"? I don't know.
I agree that we all have the capacity for wrong-doing, but I think the majority of people under normal circumstances stop short of "evil."
