"Whatever the less discerning theologians may say, the devil, as far as Christian belief is concerned, is a puzzling but real, personal and not merely symbolical presence."
Pope Benedict XVI
The presence of evil in the world, in our lives, can be a powerful force at times to take us away from the God of love, and from spreading that love to others. This website offers information about the Catholic understanding of evil and on spiritual warfare in the tradition of the Church.
