Contrary to the popular belief that temptation is all about sex I believe that the temptations of power and religion are far more damaging.
Those in positions of power - either political or financial - have been tempted to betray their contemporaries and use mass mind-control techniques to disempower and subjugate the workforce.
This creates a two-tier society where those with money have all the power and those who work for them are powerless.
The temptations of religion to judge others, damn your enemies, and demonize anyone who disagrees with you are even more damaging because they claim the authority of God Himself.
So unconscious influences which tempt the powerful and the religious should be recognized for what they are: agents of evil.
And their effects can be seen in the world.
