Evil is pretty difficult to define. It isn’t always objective and clear. Both sides of the pro life and pro choice argument claim the other side is evil.
Some people say suicide is evil while others argue that it is evil to control what someone does with their life.
A lot of people that do horrible evil things, typically have traumatic experiences as children that fuck them up. So does that mean they were born evil or does someone become evil? A lot of sex offenders were victims as children. Does that mean they don’t deserve help if they become adults and have evil compulsions? It’s easy to sit back and call this good and that evil when there isn’t any context. But most people I meet who do “evil” things like lie, cheat, and steal have pretty fucked up backgrounds that shape their incentives differently.
