On a totally unrelated topic...
I find it funny, when good versus evil comes up, how often people try to claim that evil doesn't exist.
The argument usually is that people who seem evil to us usually do what they do because they think it's the right thing. Which is often right too.
But people seem to forget that there are people who do evil things, because they know what the right thing is, and want to do the opposite of what's right for various reasons. They want to fight, they think it's cool, they're self-destructive, they get some pleasure out of making other suffer...
That point of view seems to be always thrown away.
... anyway, probably should take a short nap now.
