Part 2/11:
The speaker emphasizes that the devil's most successful trick was convincing humanity of his non-existence. If evil is unseen or considered nonexistent, then objective morality—what is right and wrong—becomes muddled or meaningless. Without a clear notion of evil, good is also devalued, leading to a society where moral lines are blurred or erased entirely.
This point touches on modern cultural shifts where many want to believe that moral choices are subjective. The speaker warns that evil is often masked as benevolence—life, freedom, or love—while concealing destructive intentions. Recognizing evil requires awareness that it can manifest from anywhere, even under the guise of kindness or care.
