does evil exist in its own right?

[Mystic]

Evil is the negative polar opposite of goodness. It doesn't exist independently, it exists with respect goodness which does exist it's own right. It exists in mind/soul but what has true existence is goodness. Goodness is positive existence and has real existence. It has an objective basis in eternal reality (God) and trickles down to us within our subjective context (plato's cave) where we need to see our inner morality through culture and society yet are also blinded by society and culture. We are in tune with objective morality in some cases and not in tune in others.
