I have never committed an evil act,nor will I. This may have something to do with the fact that I get to define the word 'evil'. I recognise no absolute moral imperatives and no moral authority apart from my conscience.

A self-serving position? Of course,so what? Such a position is admittedly selfish,but it is in no way evil in itself. (according to my definitions, which are subject to change without notice) Angel Cloud
