The Good and the Evil - is there even such a thing?
I'd say no. It's a matter of choice, in fact. I'd understand if there was only right or wrong, but not good or evil. The "Evil" people weren't exactly evil...they just chose the wrong path. And, the good obviously chose the correct path. But, people from the evil side might be good, while people from the good side might be evil. So which is which? |
