I could empathize with someone who relishes and jokes about killing people outside their ideology; these feelings are certainly familiar to me. But as a Christian, the thought of willfully doing so makes me feel ill, since I make great efforts to get those sadistic feelings *out* of my head. Someone who treats death with such cheery indifference is willingly forfeiting part of their humanity. To me, that's the definition of evil. Most evil people don't see themselves as evil and do not feel shame about what they do. In fact, they often frame their actions as a crusade.
