Title: Morality question
Post by: Parasitic Fraud on December 31, 2014, 10:05:58 pm: I have a question for you. What do you do when there is an evil you cannot defeat by just means? Do you stain your hands with evil to destroy evil, or do you remain steadfastly just and righteous even if it means surrendering to evil?

Title: Kill it with fire
Post by: Tiwaking! on January 01, 2015, 12:09:58 am: Set it on fire

If it burns, it is evil
If it does not burn, it is not evil

If it burns but does not die, then it throw it in water

If it drowns, it is not evil
If it does not drown, it is evil and must be burnt

There is no such thing as perfection in us humans and their is evil within all of us anyway. So getting a bit more evil to defeat evil is alright.

That is morally reprehensible

God permits, at times, the devils to assail us, that we might turn to Him in prayer, with a renewed trust in His love and concern for us. The extraordinary priest St John Vianney, who's straw bed the devil tried to burn when he was sleeping in it, once remarked that "the devil is like a dog on a chain. He can only go so far as God permits."

Depends on what you mean by 'means'

The question 'do you stain your hands with evil to destroy evil' - I will answer this with the following (and no godwin doesn't apply)

Was it right to wage war (War is generally regarded as Evil) to stop the 3rd Reich?

For me - it was. In this case however the Evil act is not evil by extenuating circumstances.

Resorting to violence as a form of defence, then that's not evil.

If you're aware of abuse, and do nothing to stop it, then you are the evil. Joson.
