Can science measure evil?

I find the question fascinating. Theres a lot of research out there, do your own google search as i cant seem to link right now. .. Also, is it not okay, here, at Rigorous Intuition, to safely measure things based on our own intuition? We let Jeff do it, and some times he is off on a limb, (though lately he is right on with the facts, wurlitzer prize in store?) why dont we allow ourselves that measure? okay, okay http://kindlingman.wordpress.com/2006/09/21/measuring-evil-with-the-charts/ and http://www.crimelibrary.com/criminal_mind/forensics/welner/2.html
