Who was the most-evil man in history?

Who was the most-evil man in history?
Judas Iscariot?
Genghis Khan?
Tamerlane?
Rodrigo Borgia?(pope Alexander VI)
Napoleon?
Lenin?
Stalin?
Hitler?
Tojo?
Pol Pot?
Idi Amin?
Another candidate?

My "vote" goes to Hitler. While some of his underlings committed great evils, they were done to gain favor with their boss. Himmler, Heydrich, Streicher, etc. were all in thrall to Hitler, & did whatever they believed it took to please him. Hitler brought out the most-evil tendencies stored in those men.

OTOH, Iscariot committed the one most-evil act in history, showing himself to be a true ingrate, and, despite hearing Jesus preach/teach often & seeing many of His miracles, still betrayed Him by showing the temple police who He was. But Hitler went on a 12-year binge of pure evil, being responsible for some 55 million deaths worldwide. He can be held accountable for every WW2 death, as Japan likely wouldn't've gone to war otherwise.

YOUR TURN!

It depends on if you go by most people dead because of that person. Stalin certainly is responsible for tens of millions dead in the Soviet Union and outside of the Soviet Union.

If you go by per capita, you can argue Pol Pot. Ultimately, atheism is responsible for the most people killed.

Some people consider Nero for that honor. While Nero was certainly a bad boy, most of the stories about his greatest evils are apocryphal.

Nancy Pelosi. She champions the murder of the truly innocent, the un-born.

There are still many antichrists, but the coming one, also known as 'the beast', will be the most-evil man who will ever live.
I don't believe Himmler, Heydrich, Frank, Eichmann, & the rest woulda committed their great evils had it not been for Hitler.

I was the most evil man in history, not because I was an enemy of man but because I was an enemy of God. Now I have the right to be called His child.

King Herod... And the Herodian line!... The so called king of the Jews, wasn't even a Jew... Brother Glen:)

Matthew 2:16 Then Herod, when he saw that he was mocked of the wise men, was exceeding wroth, and sent forth, and slew all the children that were in Bethlehem, and in all the coasts thereof, from two years old and under, according to the time which he had diligently inquired of the wise men.

17 Then was fulfilled that which was spoken by Jeremy the prophet, saying,

18 In Rama was there a voice heard, lamentation, and weeping, and great mourning, Rachel weeping for her children, and would not be comforted, because they are not.

Btw... How many on here have studied this man and his linage?... Trying to destroy, our Savior the one God had sent... Judas betrayed him according to scripture, Herod tried to kill him but God protected him, to fill out his mission and save our wretched hide on a cross

Romans 5:6 For when we were yet without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly.

7 For scarcely for a righteous man will one die: yet peradventure for a good man some would even dare to die.

8 But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.

9 Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him.

10 For if, when we were enemies, we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son, much more, being reconciled, we shall be saved by his life.

Brother Glen:)
