RE: Fighting Evil
tbh, i dont believe in an absolute evil. also, i dont believe in an absolute good. there are actions which i consider evil(gang-rape, torture, mass-murder with machetes) and the only universal good is a full belly, a full nights sleep, and seeing uour children grow up healthy.
now, under those definitions, fighting evil(eg. gang-rape) with evil(eg. gang-rape) can be considered justice(what happens to rapists in prison?) but you become as bad as them, and thus unable to pass judgement. or should recieve the same treatment. Nothing Solved. but fighting evil(eg. mass-murder) with good(eg. full belly) doesnt seem right either. why reward such heinous action? i guess the concept of whats good and evil is limited to the society and its paradigms. whats evil is only considered evil as long as the strongest dude thinks so. what would the war crime trials have looked like had Nazi-Germany won? i guess there is no good, evil or indifference, just action and reaction. i hope this makes sense. |
