Talking to the Devil: an interview from the Other Side. Boris Shabrin
about the effect of evil actions on society. Can you give examples of situations where a person’s decision to do evil has had a ripple effect on those around them?
Lucifer: Of course, Fose. There are countless examples of this in history. One such example is the actions of Adolf Hitler during World War II. His decision to engage in genocide and other horrific acts caused a ripple effect that affected millions of people.
Fose: How did his actions affect those around him?
Lucifer: Well, first of all, his actions caused the deaths of millions of innocent people. Also, his actions caused widespread destruction and devastation throughout Europe. And even your Soviet Union suffered.
Fose: And how did his actions affect society as a whole?
Lucifer: The consequences of his actions are still being felt today. The trauma and pain he caused continue to affect many generations. His actions also contributed to the rise of anti-Semitism and other forms of hatred and bigotry. And, of course, the war he started had a profound effect on the course of history.
Fose: This is certainly a sobering example. Can you think of any other examples where an individual’s actions have had a similar ripple effect?
Lucifer: Of course, there are many. Another example is the actions of Joseph Stalin, who during his rule in the Soviet Union carried out mass purges and other atrocities. His actions led to the deaths of millions of people and had a profound effect on Soviet society and the course of world history.
Fose: And how did his actions affect those around him?
Lucifer: Like Hitler, Stalin’s actions led to great suffering and destruction. His purges and other actions led to the deaths of countless innocents as well as the imprisonment and torture of many others. His actions also had a profound effect on Soviet society, creating a climate of fear and repression that endured for decades. And it still remains to this day. Honestly – I have never met a more hunted person than a Soviet. And they passed this fear on to their children…
Fose: Thank you for sharing these examples, Lucifer. Obviously, one person’s actions can have a profound effect on those around them. Is there anything else you would like to add on this topic?
Lucifer: Just that it is important for people to be aware of the impact their actions can have on others. Even small actions can have a ripple effect that will be felt for years or even generations. It is important to act with compassion and empathy and to recognize the interconnectedness of all things.
The Price of Power
Fose: First, I would like to ask you about power. Many people seek power at any cost, and they are willing to do evil things to achieve it. From your point of view, what is the price paid by people who seek power at any cost?
Lucifer: Power is a tempting power, and many people have fallen prey to its lure. The price paid by people who seek power at any cost is often their soul. They are consumed by the desire for power, and will stop at nothing to achieve it. They are willing to sacrifice their morals, their values and their humanity. They become mere vessels for their insatiable lust for power.
Fose: That’s a pretty heavy price to pay. Do you think there is a point where the price of power becomes too high?
Lucifer: Yes, there is a moment when the price of power becomes too high for even the most ambitious of personalities. Power can be an intoxicating force, and it can lead a person down a dark path. They may think they are in control, but in fact power controls them.
Fose: Can you give an example of a situation where the cost of power has become too high?
Lucifer: One example that comes to mind is the story of King Midas. He wished that everything he touched would turn to gold, and his wish was granted. At first he was thrilled with his newfound power, but he soon realized the true cost of his wish. He could not touch anything without turning it into gold, including his beloved daughter. Eventually he realized that his desire for power had cost him everything he held dear.
Fose: This is indeed a tragic story. Do you have any advice for those tempted by the lure of power?
Lucifer: I would suggest thinking about the true cost of power before striving for it. Power can be a dangerous force, and it can lead a person down a dark path. They can gain power but lose their humanity in the process. It is important to consider the consequences of one’s actions and remember that power should not be sought at all costs.
The Psychological Impact of Evil
Fose: To begin with, I’d like to ask you about the psychological consequences of engaging in evil deeds. As a demon who has been associated with evil throughout history, can you talk about the psychological consequences that arise when you commit evil?
Lucifer: Of course, Fose. Committing evil acts can have a profound psychological effect on a person. The darkness that accompanies such actions can become all-consuming, leading to feelings of isolation and despair. The weight of guilt and shame can also become overwhelming, causing one to question one’s own morals and sense of self-worth.
Fose: This sounds like an incredibly heavy burden. Do you believe that people who do evil things are capable of fully understanding the impact of their actions on themselves and others?
Lucifer: It depends on the person himself and his level of self-awareness. Some people may be fully aware of the harm they are doing and simply choose to ignore it. Others may not realize the extent of their actions until it is too late. But whether one is aware of the consequences of one’s actions or not, the psychological damage from committing evil can be devastating.
Fose: This is an interesting point. Can you tell us about specific instances in which you have witnessed the psychological consequences of doing evil?
Lucifer: I have seen countless instances in history where people have been consumed by their own darkness. They are so consumed by power and control that they lose sight of their humanity. I have seen empires rise and fall, and people who once wielded great power and influence have been consumed by their own demons.
Fose: This is certainly a sobering thought. Do you believe that there is hope for those who have done evil things to find redemption and inner peace?
Lucifer: Redemption is always possible, but it requires a willingness to face one’s own demons and take responsibility for one’s actions. It is not an easy path, but people can find inner peace and a sense of purpose even after doing evil things.
Fose: Thank you, Lucifer, for sharing your thoughts with me today. It certainly gave me a lot of food for thought.
Society’s Response to Evil
Fose: So, Lucifer, let’s start with the question of society’s reaction to evil. As a demon, you have seen and perhaps even caused a great deal of evil in the world. What do you think about how society reacts to those who do evil things?
Lucifer: Well, Fose, I must say that human society’s response to evil is quite fascinating to me. It seems that there are many ways in which society responds to evil, from punishment and imprisonment to forgiveness and rehabilitation.
Fose: Yes, that’s true. The justice system plays a big role in responding to evil acts. What do you think about the role of law enforcement and the justice system in punishing those who commit evil acts?
Lucifer: I believe that the justice system plays an important role in maintaining order and keeping people from doing evil things. However, I also believe that the justice system is sometimes flawed and can lead to unjust sentences or excessive punishments.
Fose: That’s a good point. Do you think that society’s response to evil is sufficient, or do you think that additional measures should be taken to prevent evil?
Lucifer: I think there is always room for improvement when it comes to preventing evil acts. One of the biggest problems facing society
