The news does not shy away from stories that show the moral
flaws of humanity. Read any newspaper and there is always something
about the latest crime in its pages. Every so often though, we are
fortunate enough to hear stories of people who still want to do the
right thing. For instance, Leah Kleppinger
recently found a wallet when no one else was around. When she opened
it, she saw $4,600 in cash and credit cards and had every opportunity to
pocket it, but instead returned it to its owner.
But
just because we hear about bad things and nice things happening does
that mean there is a true battle versus good and evil? Is Leah
Kleppinger the epitome of good while someone who would have kept the
wallet the definition of evil?
So...you're prompt for the week:
Do
you believe in absolute good and evil? Is it as clear cut as Harry
Potter versus Voldemort, the Sith versus the Jedi? Is there no war at
all between good and evil; is there just this gray area where sometimes
good people do bad things? Are good and evil even things that have to
exist? Can one eliminate the other once and for all? What is evil? What
is good?
Use examples when applicable!
