The link is below. The article's content is horrifying enough, but for some reason it was the picture of them that disturbed, even frightened, me the most. They look like attractive but ordinary kids, just that age when normal people start to learn about evil in the world but still generally retain their childlike innocence. What are they doing so deeply entrenched in the service of evil? I am confused enough when grown-ups espouse naive, stupid, and destructive views, but to see that in kids is heartbreaking and enraging all at the same time. It reminds me once again that evil rarely bears its true face. For all the portrayals of the devil as an ugly red monster, the Bible's is that he is a beautiful creature. So are, I suppose, the most effective servants of evil. "Beauty is only skin deep" is such a cliche of a saying, repeated to the point where one know longer thinks about the truth of it. But in a context like this, it seems fresh and profound all over again. |
