What is the definition ofevil?

Answer 1

"Evil" is anambiguous term meaning opposite of good. Because of perspective there is not a real answer to "What is evil?", i.e. kill 20 people in your town your a serial killer while as if you kill 20 people during war you are considered a hero. So simply "evil" is something YOU consider not good

--------------------------------------------

Evil is the exact opposite of good. Good is of creation and preservation of things that are not evil. Evil is the destruction of everything, usually...The universe is divided into good and evil. Without good, there is no evil, (as there is nothing left to destroy), rendering evil as nothing, because there would be no distinction of the universe. And basically the other way around...Not that we need anymore evil. Evil is one of the unique halfs that define the universe.

--------------------------------------------

Evil is rebellion against God. God has laid down guidelines in the form of The Bible and the laws inside it. Whenever we disobey these laws we commit sin, or evil. Thoughts that are selfish, lustful or filled with hate are also evil. The end result of all evil is death, of the body and of our relationship with God. God is perfectly good and therefore cannot be near evil. However as He created us and wants us to be with him, He sent Jesus (my best friend!) to earth. What this accomplished is staggering; when Jesus was killed (unjustly, and innocently) He took all the sins of mankind and paid for them in death. He came to life three days later because He's awesome and had overcome death. So now, whenever we ask for forgiveness for our sin / evil, and we are truly sorry for what we did- the death He died covers our evil and we are forgiven. Sweet huh!?

Evil is perception, it has no relation to "god" and the bible, so please leave your Fairy Tales for bed time.
