In this latest episode of Timeless Wisdom, Dennis delves into the age-old question: why do people do bad things? As he explores this complex topic, he divides it into two categories: ideological evil and personal evil. He argues that ideological evil is often more frightening than individual evil, as it's done by people who genuinely believe they're doing good, citing examples from history like the Nazis and Communists.

In this thought-provoking episode, Dennis discusses the roots of bad behavior, from the societal level to the individual. He talks to callers who share their perspectives on the matter, including Charles, who suggests that a lack of self-restraint and a sense of entitlement are key factors, and Reverend Jamie, who believes that selfishness and self-centeredness are at the heart of the issue. Dennis also explores the concept of empathy and how it relates to bad behavior.
