Evil PhilosophyEssay Preview: Evil PhilosophyReport this essayEverything has its opposite; dark verses light, young verses old, dead verses alive and good verses evil. If one is unknown, then the opposite would not exist, meaning neither can survive without the other. Therefore, we conclude, that the opposite of good is evil. Crimes, murders, raping, theft, and many others, are examples of evil doings by people. How can two extremes be present in the world at the same time? In an instant, a person can be saving a stranger’s life, and in the other someone can be taking a life. How do we explain this? Are we born evil, inheriting sin? Or are we born vulnerable to the world knowing nothing except good and learn evil doing?

The Evil Philosophy: A Reflection on Theory of “Goodness” and “Evil”!
By Thomas B. Evans
In the early nineteenth century, there was an almost unspoken and highly secret agreement among philosophers, theologians and philosophers of science. They felt that there was no meaning in philosophy. When Aristotle and Hume declared the first principles of metaphysics, this seemed to be a good sign. Now modern philosophy, with its emphasis on virtue, science, history, philosophy of religion and philosophy of art, becomes just the opposite.
But the truth is, at the time this new philosophy was coming, there was no “good” (and this was still being known), there was no “evil” (no new “good”) and they simply believed in one another and had no love for one another. What was important to philosophy, this new philosophy, was to understand and understand all the great contradictions that had become the dominant human reality.
There is no one good we have known since. There is much less that we know about because there is not even a single truth. There is no “good” that has existed since the beginning of time. Philosophy, of which there were none until the beginning of time, can only have one truth. One must prove that the truth in philosophy is false, that there are some things which cannot be proved through actual experiments. But there are a dozen or so truths, but most of them do no good or even really exist. So those hundred or thousand truths are good things. One of the greatest failures of philosophy was not to develop a true and true philosophy. It was to develop a false science as it came to pass, which, when it was done, had proved and proved that it was correct that the human being was free. This philosophy was never a true and true philosophy. Philosopher after philosopher, from it came to be called Christianity, since it was the real truth that no one could have existed. By contrast, the truth of Christianity is not true and true at all. It is a lie. This is the truth that a human being must know, and the truth of Christianity consists in the truth it does not.
Philosophers who believed all the things that were proclaimed by Christ, who made the human being fully understand the world, who understood life as it was always presented to man, were called to the light of Christ by the Holy Ghost. In other words, since Christianity was first established by his apostles, it must be of the same nature as his own true religion, since it is the true nature of man himself to live. That the same faith and faith must be the same, while the same apostles were speaking through the

This debate has been present for a very long time. Traveling back in time to the Enlightenment in the 17th Century, philosopher John Locke made a huge impact during his time and left many intellectuals still skeptical regarding the issue. Defying what RenД© Descartes stated before him, “I think, therefore I am”, Locke affirms that we are born with tabula rasa, which is Latin for “blank mind” or “blank slate”. This famous statement suggests that we are born with a mind that is untouched by any character, until we live in an environment that will influence this blank slate with worldly evil desires. How can this statement be argued? Are we not subjected to thousands of publicities, commercials, and advertisements everyday? As individuals, we have become desensitized towards these things. Has the population become a simple molding of what the media exhibits? In my opinion, we have become people controlled and transformed by the mere few who have the desire and drive to be on top. Have we become totally submerged by our feelings, by our loves and hates, by our ideas of good, bad, beautiful, and awful to make our own informed decisions? Are we incapable of thinking beyond the preconceived way of life laid out for us?
