I'm pretty sure the vast majority of people on the planet could identify blatant evil if it was presented to them, no matter what their religion is.
most religions have something similar to christianity's "golden rule". the whole "do unto others as you would have them to do to you" (Luke 6:31) has existed longer than any of the abrahamic faiths.
It also fascinates me how so many so-called devout christians tend to ignore this rule.

meh. I've heard worse ideas.
...Between two evils, I always pick the one I never tried before.
