this is just my personal opinion, but i find it odd to even suggest that good and evil don't exist. of course they exist. everything exists - it's all in the definitions. good and evil are kinda hard to define because there is no objective good or evil... or is there? everyone must belong to one of two large groups of people: people who believe there is a unifying force in the universe that dictates objective truth; people who believe that truth exists only as we perceive it. those are the only two i can see at the moment - if anybody can think of any others, let me know. anyway in the first case, it's impossible to ever really be sure you know good or evil. in the second case, everyone's good and evil are different. either way all we can know is what we feel, and chaos is, in a way, the clashing of good and evil, but more precisely, it's the confusion over what's right and what's wrong. if we all agreed on right and wrong, good and evil, conflict would cease to exist and chaos would be a thing of the past. however, chaos is a fact of life, logically, in both systems and is what we really call freedom of choice. if we all felt the same way, we would act in the same way, and thus would be incapable of doing anything but what was the logical next step in the sequence of actions which constitute our existences under one good-evil system. wow i confuse even myself from time to time... |
