Evil is…
I was just perusing Matt Mower‘s thoughts on Google‘s motto of "Do no evil". What is the nature of evil? Does it exist? Or is it made? Many branches of Christianity believe that satan is constantly trying to take you down. This suggests that evil exists unto itself. Is evil, simply the absence of good? I know it is possible to ‘train’ someone to be bad. But can you be born evil? The "Omen" movies would have you think so I am not so sure. Also, whose is deciding that something is evil? Foucault would have us believe that it is those that are in a position of power in a given moment and given context that define what is evil. Cigarette companies are ‘evil’ in the current time, but were not thought so in the 1950s.
