You see these Quadruple spirits of Anger, Jealousy,Greed and Lust.
They are so powerful that 95% of human problems,vices, societal issues are caused by them.
Name but a few: Wars, interethnic conflicts, political corruption, Occultism, Establishment and proliferation of Pornographic industry and its affiliates,prostitution,drug trafficking gambling, and much more.
Among the four spirits,Anger is nothing compared to Jealousy.
