EVIL people: a Continuum

In "Natural Born Killers" the indian tells them the story of the snake in the desert.

A woman finds an injured snake in the desert. She nurses it back to health.
Then the snake bites her.

She is confused, "Why did you bite me, I took care of you and helped you?"

Snake says "Bitch, what'd you think I was gonna do, Im a snake, that's what I do".


question is...Do you think there's any circumstance where an EVIL person would
be appreciative and shed their skin
in accordance to their treatment?

if someone is conditioned to hate humanity from an early age (or any/all living things for that matter), i think you would be hard-pressed to instill compassion in them unless you put them through a conditioning that was as effective as that which made them "evil".

i could be wrong. shrug

Im not saying "curing" them. But like Juliette Lewis in the movie, she had real compassion for the indian guy who treated them very well. She wouldnt have hurt him but the boyfirend had no sense of anything
but KILL KILL DESTROY DESTROY, regardless of the situation.

Setting aside the issue of whether or not "evil" exists, yes, I believe people can be rehabilitated (if they couldn't, then every crime should warrant a life sentence, no?).
