I have been thinking about the concept of evil.

Most monstrosities caused in history have been because of religion, and those people didn't think they were evil at all. Quite the opposite, they thought they were doing the work of God.

So is there evil? As one said, kill one man & you're a murderer, kill a few thousand and you're a liberator.

@Wetrix im working on my own philosophy...ill just give u a note of mine about that..

Stop judging good/evil. A person can do evil but that doesnt make him an evil man. A person can do good things but that doesnt make him a good person.

Problem: There are extreme cases caused by active effort and will of usually evil in which case that man has to be stopped for the chaos he is causing to be stopped but for that to happen he has to be judged.

Conclussion: Some thought and research is needed

@anon_les I suppose. I think evil is a pov tbh.

One man's terrorist is another's freedom fighter right? It's all pov from what I see maybe I'm wrong though 😊

@Wetrix read the problem..there are rare cases causes by active effort and will of usually evil...For example zodiac killer...Theres no way in hell to say that what he did was a matter of perspective.

@Wetrix me, a philosophy student and his friend havent been able to solve this problem...
