When I looked up the meaning of Evil it said “profoundly immoral or wrong.” And when I looked up the word Immoral it said ”contrary to accepted moral principles.”
And, Moral is defined as “relating to issues of right and wrong” or “derived from personal conscience: based on what somebody’s conscience suggests is right or wrong, rather than on what rules or the law says should be done.”
So evil is breaking the moral code.
What happens in a family where the moral code is twisted, if right is wrong and wrong is right?
When a child breaks that code, instead of being right, the family actually sees them as evil, for they broke the family’s moral code.
I am surprised that evil is actually defined more by morals or immoral behavior than actual rules and laws.
Discerning evil is harder when what you call normal is evil and good is a foreign concept.
Evil is actually only a personal affront to your own morals. And the morals are personal to you.
Morals, “according to common standard of justice: regarded in terms of what is known to be right or just, as opposed to what is officially or outwardly declared to be right or just.”
What is known to be right or just, not what is an official right or wrong.
My teachings of evil or my awareness of morals were defined by my parents and my mother’s religion, the churches conscience was my mothers.
Evil is going against the morals…and if the morals themselves are evil, then what?
Raised in a vaccum of evil morals all good becomes evil.
Imagine living up to evil morals…where the gold standard is far beneath its value, where bad is seen as good and good bad.
It seem perposterous, incredibly insane, to not recognize evil, the evil of the norm. But when your evil was defined by a limited cult of religious fanatics, you are then raised to see anything outside the walls of the churches morals to be wrong.
The church wore a mask of high morals.
