I think Corrie would be the first one to say that she had evil in her own heart.
Few of us would say that there’s no such thing as evil, but we’re not too keen on finding it anywhere near our own lives. Sure, we’ll say that Hitler was evil, and Charles Manson was evil, but, for the rest of us, we’re somewhere in the middle between the Nazis hunting down Jews in the dark and the heroes hiding them in their closets. By seeing ourselves as neither too-bad nor too-good, a bit of grey between the poles good and evil, we fail to see the evil in our own hearts.
