Since God's greatest creation is the soul, each soul is pure in every way.
He loans out the soul to each of us when we are born, only to have it returned to Him when we die.
Through one's life experience, each person collects karmic debt which -- like dust on a mirror -- obscures the view of the soul as pure and clean.
So, what about evil souls?
Evil is more like a dark shell that covers a person's soul, the darkness being the fears, the guilt, and the suffering caused by an originally conscious decision to remain apart from God's mercy.
For the soul, being God's greatest creation, is also His most precious.
It cannot be touched by spiritual darkness and evil itself, for the soul contains the inner divine light which comes from God.
Through love, fear and anger can be controlled through mindful effort and carefully wielded by each of us for the welfare of us all.
Likewise, love helps shed light on darkness, bringing the wisdom needed to abandon evil.
And this love is inspired by God's love for all His creation.

Mindful effort refers to meditation.
In addition, it also refers to being careful to watch for signs that you are getting angry and making adjustments to your behavior to express that anger appropriately.
