“Faith and Doubt” Response

I agreed with Rabbi Brad Hirschfield the most on his definition of evil.  He says that evil is something big and little things that people do wrong are not evil.  I feel that if you make a mistake it is not evil, it is just a mistake.  For example, oversleeping or getting into an auto accident are not truely evil, they are just mistakes.  I feel that people who call everything that is wrong “evil” are people who just want a cut and dry conclusion. I agree with Rabbi Hirschfield that naming one person as evil does not make the evil go away.  It is stil there and it is still evil.
