Good vs. Evil: Good is ultimately more powerful than evil, although evil does seem to have a necessary place in the world. There are People that are good might still have to suffer and make difficult choices, but ultimately everything will work out for them in the end so they will enjoy a happy ending. Even people who make serious mistakes can be forgiven and rejoin the side of good. Creatures who are truly evil will be vanquished in the end. Evil is most disturbing because it preys on our own weaknesses and negative traits. And destroys the hopes of others. Early in In The Lion, the Witch, and The Wardrobe, by C.S. Lewis, Edmund argues that children should avoid choosing sides in Narnia before they are certain the White Witch is evil and Mr. Tumnus and his friends are good. Or that Mr. Tumnus was trying to trick her.
Good is here to cancel out the Evil in life. But Evil is here to try to either take over the world or make communism out of it. There can’t be only evil or only good, there has to be some kind of evil in each person, and same with good. Like there is always light, but there is also always dark. There is always kind and there is always mean, these are examples of Good vs. Evil. In Narnia, Edmund betrays his siblings and lies to siblings about Narnia existing. Edmund soon becomes good and feels bad that he done that, so he breaks the White Witch’s wand. “'Because,' he said to himself, 'all these people who say nasty things about her are her enemies and probably half of it isn't true. She was jolly nice to me, anyway, much nicer than they are. I expect she is the rightful Queen really. Anyway, she'll be better than that awful Aslan!' At least, that was the excuse he made in his own mind for what he was doing. It wasn't a very good excuse, however, for deep down inside him he really knew that the White Witch was bad and cruel.” (C. S. Lewis pg. 89)
Good always wins, in some ways it is because evil has some good which distracts them from their main goal. That also goes for good, good doesn’t do it more often because evil at any chance has to destroy good, and good is focused on how can this be stopped. Good doesn’t have enough strength or focus to become evil because as for the last sentence, evil will destroy good with any chance.
Good and Evil are two sides of the same coin. If one exists then the other has to exist. Existence of evilness and goodness makes us human or inhuman and also allows us to live in a world of free will, where we can choose and can make choices of our choice. So, for us to be a free will creatures, we have to have a choice, to choose what is good for us. Good and evil are more connected to each other than what people give them credit for. Good coexists with evil and there can be no good unless there is also an evil. Something that benefits a society would be considered good. On the other hand, if it does not benefit a society, it would be considered evil. The term good and evil can be associated with whatever a person sets their moral to be. When a person finds joy in something, they call it good. On the other hand, if it brings them agony, they call it evil. Good and evil can mean whatever people want you to think they mean. What is good to one person can be evil to another person. For instance, a soldier that goes to war for his country will be viewed as a hero even after death.
The idea that 'there would be no good without evil' is a good place to start. Are we inherently good or evil? These are questions that have been asked for centuries, and have taken ever longer to possibly answer. It might be numerous decades from now before they finally answer these questions. Conflicts heavily arise between the two topics of good and evil. Through common stories good and evil are portrayed through both protagonist and antagonist view, creating morals and opinions, and how societies views have changed over time. If you wish to make the difference between good and evil, just analyze all actions and words. But first, start with thoughts. Exactly the thoughts, because in the future they will become the words and the words will become actions. You should also think about the consequences of actions on life and on the life of other people. But also, there is no need to help people or do something good for them if you were not asked about it, because something that is good, can be not very good for another person. If you think about it, avoid problems in the future.
