What are some books that will help me reconcile the evils of the world?
>>
I find it is worthwhile to combine a sort of nihilistic darwinian gnosticism to the whole endevor. We are in a flawed and uncaring void in which all interactions have become commitized. All expression has been uploaded to a hyperreality of online social networks such that all activities and creations are now used to created a false visage. We are in an era of unrestrained corporatism that turns all labor into a commodity itself and all individuals into consumers.

I would recommend some Foucault and Nietzsche. Through these you will see that not only is all interaction based on the flow of power and its utilization, but your own belief in the evils around you are based on the defition of those in power.

While delving into the naturalistic worldview you will also being to understand that evil is based on frame of reference, we are all complicit. If you are a westerner, most of our good and a great deal of our well being has been based on the exploitation of third world labor, becuase of this, the evil presented to others is seen as a good for the self. Original sin is no longer the fall of adam but the joys we eek from life through the suffering of others. The only reaction to this is to nihilistically reframe yourself as a Good Christian and be done with the whole deal.

Don't reconcile Evil. Doing so only benefits it.

This is exactly wrong. If anything it will just make them seem more significant.
