RE: Evil. Should we keep it simple and stop trying to put it in a box?
some things are just right and wrong. Perhaps evil is what is considered wrong according to what society/upbringing says. The pagans used to do human sacrifice to their gods. Perhaps not to comply and not believe were deemed "evil". To us, today we would deem it as evil. each and every bodies unique surrounding. It's a also a nature/nurture argument.
Yes, this is indeed true. Culture has a huge impact on the perception of evil. This is why I defined what I meant by it and why I said it is simple. I believe the simple definition I gave can transcend cultures. That's why it is simple.
what if there was an actual dimension of evil? Now that's more of a longer piece of discussion.
Could be, might not be. I certainly won't base my reality on what ifs. I can come up with what ifs and speculation almost non-stop. Yet I must base my reality on what I can observe and know. If I gain the ability to perceive this dimension then I'd need to plan how I live around that.
