Would you Call Yourself Good or Evil?
I’ve noticed a trend. There is Hatred and Abuse for those who uphold Moral Codes. Those who Punish evil are being accused of being the Aggressors, when actually they are the Defenders. It seems that People here are identifying with the punished transgressors and the attackers of Morality.
The idea that Evil victimizes Society and that punishing Evil may deter its repetition is largely ignored, while people seem more afraid of receiving the punishments then confident that they will benefit from a secured level of Righteousness and Morality which a strict observance of the Rules would entail.
I think people must decide which side they are on. If you are Good then be good and stand shoulder to shoulder with other Good People. Raise your children to be Good. Insist that people coming into your Society also be Good. Understand that in your Goodness, the Rules are there to protect you and yours from those who would introduce Evil. The Rules are Good Things.
Instead we have everyone behaving as though they are Evil. They assume the Rules will hurt them more than they will help. Their battle cry is “Fight the Rules!” They want to be free to do anything they want. These people are consciously and deliberately Evil.
Ok basically good and evil are black and white concepts,and my argument is the world never has and never will work in black OR white,there are many levels,inbetween black and white you have shades of grey and thats where the world operates along with every human.
You cant remove one or the other without collapsing the system.
Like a lightbulb,a DC lightbulb operates using a negative and positive wire,call that your black and white,remove either the pos or neg and the light goes out.
Thats how i see the world,the best you can do is get yourself in a lighter tone of grey.But there is many levels everywhere.
I dont personally believe in good and evil,for reasons well outlined above,they are too extreme an opposite and they are based on what defines them.
If you ask me "was hitler evil?"
id say yes,but id counter it to say he did have humane good features,which frightens people,it scares people to mention hitler liked to relax drinking tea,and loved animals,and painted really well and helped create the autobahn and voltswagen,to say this person had features of being human is astounding,but such a person couldnt get in thier position without some charisma.
I mean you couldnt have grabbed any old psycho serial killer off the street and get em to be a dictator and start a world war.
The other fact is he never killed anyone with his own hands,the only person he ever killed was himself.
So your definition of evil is always warped,a serial killer is essentially more evil than hitler but is too stupid and has too many social problems to get in a position where he/she would kill many people,thats also not thier adgenda,hitlers was for power and megalomania,a kinda "destroy to recreate" and build a super race devoid of any jewish blood,i mean he was a total fruit+nut but theres more than one kind of evil.
A serial killer's view essentially involves a compulsion to kill people,an addiction cos they enjoy it maybe its the sounds and screaming people might make,maybe they get sexually aroused when snapping a childs neck,or plunging a large blade through someones lung and listening to the gurgling sound,its all of these things and more,so ive always held the belief that psychologically a serial killer is far more warped than hitler.
