The irony of the Tower of Babel is that these folks were not recruited to build a tunnel to hell. They were recruited to build a tower to heaven. Now doesn't that sound like an inspired calling? Well, God was not pleased and cursed the people for participating in that project.
Evil is usually not branded as evil. It's usually branded as good in order to deceive you. We even may deceive ourselves occasionally because of our good intentions. So how does one discern the evil in an objective? That's the rub. How good are you at discerning something is evil although it is branded to be good?
What is good is what is God's will. We have a responsibility and an accountability to not be deceived. If we allow ourselves to be deceived, we are guilty of perpetuating evil. Integrity is in those who discern intentions and motivations that are righteous. We must expose those who exercise unrighteous dominion.
"We have learned by sad experience that it is the nature and disposition of almost all men, as soon as they get a little authority, as they suppose, they will immediately begin to exercise unrighteous• dominion." See http://scriptures.lds.org/dc/121/39#39
Don't be deceived when evil is branded as good and your leader trys to sell you what is not righteous or motivated with charity.
