Is evil detected through tests in the blood like cancer is detected in the blood?
Ok here is the thing. What I'm trying to find out is the reason behind people who are just pure evil, nothing about them is good, everything is evil, when you look in there eyes you see torture & you feel nothing but coldness & death like Michael Myer's out of the movie Halloween. I mean just Evil. Ok say you get a perfectly good, kind & loving man & you get an evil, just pure evil man & give them both a test of there whole body like there blood, mind, like you know what I mean. Will they differ in anyway? like lets say cancer can be detected through a blood test. Can evil be detected through a test like a blood test or a body test like cancer & aids & everything is detected? I hope you get what I am trying to say. Like they mite say about the evil man, that he is evil because he kills people & hates everything in life. So they put him in a mental institute. But what I'm trying to find out is that, is there anything different in the blood or mind that's makes an evil man so purely evil than to a good man who is loving & caring? Or have they the same dna & description as one another if you know what I mean? I'm trying to be as specific as I possibly can? I hope that I have given you enough information because this is a very tricky question for me to ask. I am not referring to Michael Myer's from the movie, I am just using him as an example, I purely mean an evil person who is similar to that character. Please I hope you just answer what I am asking specifically. I hope you can answer this question. Thanks.

- No. Evil is not a physical problem, or even a specific psychological one. There is no 'evil serum' or chemical that points to it. You can't test for evil. Though! There is Antisocial Personality Disorder, which usually causes people to be 'evil'. But there is no blood test, or even really any psychological screening that could detect it.
- There is no such test. No-one is either pure evil, mor good; we are all a different balance, at different times; no-one is born evil! Even Adolf Hitler liked children (Aryan).
- no, if you believe in the concept of evil its more a spiritual state of being, nothing biological related.
- Are you serious?
- There are no physical tests to determine evil in a person. A person who what you call evil is sociopath or a psychopath. They were born without a conscience and will do anything they can to get what they want no matter who they hurt. They will kill just to kill as serial killers do. Unfortunately there is no medication or therapy that can help these people. But there are psychological tests that can determine if a person does not have a conscience. Many study normal behavior in others from a young age and are able to behave and act like normal people and you would never know that they are evil. Fortunately when they are caught killing they can and are put away for life. But we can't do anything about those who are out there acting just like you and me. Some weren't smart enough to study normal human beings and after becoming familiar or close to them you will know it, but the only thing you can do is get and stay as far away as you can from them. Psychological testing that shows a person to not have a conscience before they have harmed others doesn't help anybody, as there are no laws, of course that you can take an evil person and put him/her away. Some are extremely intelligent and continue with their behaviors for years before getting caught. It is a very interesting subject that there are no answers for. There are many forensic psychiatrists who have spent their lives studying evil and trying to find out how and why it happens but still have no answers
- Evil is the persuing of selfish desires without regard for anyone else. Evil is love of money - the never ending lust for more and more. Evil is apathy - not caring if someone gets hurt. These things are down to conscience and how people choose to live. There is no test to prove if someone is 'evil' or not. When we are born, we are given free will. We can choose the paths of either good or evil. If a government could test for badness in people and get rid of them, we wouldn't have free will. Instead, we would be forced to do what the government says. In other words, Hitler made his own ideas of good and evil. He considered homosexuals and jews to be evil so he put them in concentreation camps. Even if someone did kill people or whatever, it still doesn't make them pure evil. What if they decide to repent? This is not DNA or genes, it is FREE WILL.
