Desire dwells within the heart. The driving art of our actions. Motivating the motives in us. That will result in us a gratification. If intentions are translated into actions. Appears in forms of interests, hobbies, passions, wants & needs, and aspirations.
Desires CAN BE summarized into good & evil
Evil desires have caused
1. money to be the root of all evil
2. the fall of man, the birth of sin in man.
3. allowing the devil to invoke temptation in us.
4. greed, slander, gluttony, murder, sloth and anger
5. lust to rape, masturbation, porn, adultery, incest, perversion, and fornication.
6. waste of time from meaningless entertainments
7. the will of God in a person's life to be obsolete
8. the successes of the forces of darkness
9. crimes rates to its peek
10. corruption of authorities
11. And so the list goes on...

Evil X desires = evil intention = evil + sin = gratification of flesh = death
