We in the west act like children, we prefer our fantasy of reality to the harsh facts, which allow the harsh facts e.g. "Hitler is evil," something Churchill desperately tried to warn the British government and only when the bombs were literally dropping on their own heads did they give Churchill the power and even then after the war finished they took it away – so rest assured dear friend such “thinking” not only will never protect you from evil, it is what allows evil to kill you
