Good is nice
Evil is rude and bad

[Anonymous No.15582331]

Evil is ignorance, Good is knowledge. Ignorance leads to hatred, and knowledge leads to love

Evil doesn't exist, good is the foundations of truth, justice, love etc

It's a creation of perception, an artistic representation of the inner desires of the being.

whatever it is, it is irreducible, antagonistic, and eternal.

Good is what God commands. Evil is what the Devil commands.

Sure good is the creator's being and from his being we get an asymmetrical lattice extending out from him. The being gives other things their being creating another lattice.
There's no proof nothing can exist definitionally and privati boni covers the relationship of existence and non existence

There is no good and evil. There is only good and not good, and God is good. Satan is not even God's enemy, he is his own enemy first and foremost, and the same goes for sinners.

Good benefits you. Evil appears to benefit you at the cost of hurting someone else, only it doesn’t.

Evil is what we use to describe what is lesser Good, or the worse of two options.

The Good is that which, on its own, creates unity, stability, and contentment.
The Evil is that which, on its own, creates strife, inconstancy, and greed.

good is what is, evil is either a lack or excess thereof

Doesn't god command evil ? If he doesn't, he either doesn't care and thus promotes it or he's simply not god.

Evil doesn't exist. He allows people to choose to follow Him or to choose not to follow Him. The latter choice is not a life of evil, it's just a life away from the light of Goodness. Similarly, if God is omnipotent, and he cannot do evil, then evil does not exist. Rather, actions either bring you closer to God or further from Him. Also,

>and thus promotes it
Is not correct. To enforce good is the greatest evil, because then we'd be automatons. These are, at best, atheist shower thoughts co-opting Epicurus' argument and holding God, an infinitely superior mind, to their ideas of what a perfect world would be like. A good God does not mean a God that cleanses the world of sinners (people who have departed from God, not "evil" people) and creates a sham paradise on earth that you'd expect a child to ask a mall Santa for (e.g., put an end to wars and hunger).

You can judge a tree by it's fruit, if it produces bitterness and hatred it's not the truth, but a darkened false truth.
