Human psychology is captivating. The Milgram human experiment really exposed the human need to obey. Horror film director Roth will reconstruct the contraversial experiment for the Discovery Channel on Sunday. What I was drawn to most was Roth's explination of evil. According to Roth, "I think there are certain acts people commit that can be labeled and categorized as evil, but I don’t believe that “evil” exists. I’ve always felt that the scariest thing is when humans disconnect themselves from what they’re actually doing and displace the guilt and responsibility onto a third party. They’re capable of doing anything." It is an idea worth exploring
