Good vs. Evil Morgan Lakofka

                There is a quote by Shakespeare that addresses my opinion on good vs. evil. It is, "Nothing is good or bad, only thinking makes it so." Nobody can look at something and automatically think "This is evil", they have to have some common knowledge behind that something to make it seem so.  I believe there is no such thing as clear cut evil because everyone has the chance to be good, and what makes something good or bad anyways? I think evil and good should be graded on scales of 1-10, good being a one and evil being a 10. This is how I feel it applies in the real world; there is an in-between or gray area.  This gray area is the good people who occasionally do bad things and the bad people who sometimes do good things but there are people who go to extremes, the 1’s and 10’s.  It’s hard to go through your entire life and not do anything even remotely bad. People have good and bad days, they shouldn’t be considered evil for that one bad day, which is why I don’t believe in good vs. evil.
