Welcome to the forums TWQ!

I suppose in the end, an individuals stance on evil would be the same as their stance on morality as the two clearly linked.

Personally I do not believe in an objective morality; good, bad and so on are judged entirely subjectivly within our social structure as such an extreme immoral act (an "evil" act) would only be so when judged by our society. This judgement is of course subjective but when I say our society, I refer to humanity as a whole not any one denomination.

Thanks

Sam
