The second type is type of anti-evil demons of the image of God concealed the existence of those who are trying to find God but could not find God, and therefore gave up the search for God. The third category is the good deeds, evil nature of the image-based, God concealed the existence of God is not found but still continue to search for God, and bet God definitely exists. The fourth category is the ideal-type image of the hidden God exists, these people want the existence of God, but because of their reason and wisdom can not believe that the existence of God, and therefore they are nothing bet.The evil images of a stage full of pedigree, due to the different attitudes to God decide they are in different stages, and in various stages of inner natures and because subtle differences determine differences in their character Therefore, the diversity are formed.Dostoevsky's evil images have great spiritual aesthetic value. In Dostoevsky's works, everything is so colorful. There are multiple dimensions of evil, his evil nature of those who shaped the image of us as if into another world. This is a complete spirit of the world, is also a world of aesthetic.Dostoevsky was filled with compassionate feelings when he created of these characters.
