The sign of the cross, merely a sign of religion and something that is very sacred to all Christians. I remember when I was in Israel back in 2012 and 2013 of how religion played a huge part in everyone’s everyday life.

Death is the overall result, or rather it’s the main goal to carry out orders to attack. The goal is to eliminate as many people as they can. And make a statement that as soon as we let our guard down, they will give us a cheap shot. Moral Evil is the more appropriate term for this. Murder, aggression, terrorism, violence, theft, greed, bribery , hatred, racism, discrimination, revenge, lying, deceit, slander, gossip, adultery, rape and other sexual immorality are examples of moral evils.

It is the result of ignoring the Ten Commandments (Exodus 20:1-17) and Jesus’ command to “love your neighbor as yourself” (Matthew 22:35-40. Romans 13:9, James
