Zimbardo wrote, “The psychologist Ervin Staub (who as a child survived the Nazi occupation of Hungary) concurs that most people under particular circumstances have a capacity for extreme violence and destruction of human life. Staub has come to believe that, “Evil arises out of ordinary thinking and is committed by ordinary people and is the norm, not the exception … Great evil arises out of ordinary psychological processes that evolve, usually with a progression along a continuum of destruction.” He highlights the significance of ordinary people being caught up in situations where they can (gradually) learn to practice evil acts that are demanded by higher-level authorities: “Being part of a system shapes views, rewards adherence to dominant views, and makes deviation psychologically demanding and difficult.” What is Creator’s perspective?

Zimbardo wrote, “From her in-depth analysis of soldiers trained by the Greek military junta to be state-sanctioned torturers, my colleague Greek psychologist Mika Haritos-Fatouros concluded that torturers are not born but made by their training. “Anybody’s son will do” is her answer to the question, “Who will make an effective torturer?” In a matter of a few months, ordinary young men from rural villages became “weaponized” by their training in cruelty to act like brute beasts capable of inflicting the most horrendous acts of humiliation, pain, and suffering on anyone labeled “the enemy,” who, of course, were all citizens of their own country. What is Creator’s perspective?

Zimbardo wrote, “Reject simple solutions as quick fixes for complex personal and social problems. Traditional analyses by most people, including those in the legal, religious, and medical institutions, focus on the actor as the sole causal agent. Consequently, they minimize or disregard the impact of situational variables and systemic determinants that shape behavioral outcomes and transform actors.” Yet Zimbardo was not fatalistic: “In those studies and many others, while the majority obeyed, conformed, complied, were persuaded, and were seduced, there was ALWAYS A MINORITY WHO RESISTED, DISSENTED, AND DISOBEYED.” Again, we come face to face with a divine-level problem. How can Empowered Prayer, the Lightworker Healing Protocol, Deep Subconscious Mind Reset, and Divine Life Support turn the minority into the majority?
