What is evil?

  • 0:09 - 0:13
    Forget "good as gold".
    Today is going to be evil.
  • 0:14 - 0:16
    But who or what is evil at all?
  • 0:16 - 0:17
    The devil?
  • 0:17 - 0:18
    The illuminati?
  • 0:19 - 0:20
    The mother-in-law?
  • 0:20 - 0:24
    Usually evil stands for
    morally wrong decisions,
  • 0:24 - 0:26
    a basic power which influences
    the history of the world
  • 0:26 - 0:28
    and which is the opponent of good.
  • 0:28 - 0:30
    That means: where there is light,
    there is also shadow.
  • 0:31 - 0:34
    Obviously! God against the devil,
    the West againgst the terrorists,
  • 0:34 - 0:36
    Aspirin against headaches...
  • 0:36 - 0:38
    However, let's go back to the individual.
  • 0:39 - 0:44
    But who defines what is "morally wrong"?
  • 0:44 - 0:48
    Definding on the ethic position there are
    big differences between definitions.
  • 0:48 - 0:51
    Accroding to the critic of the Bible
    Benedict de Spinoza, evil is all
  • 0:51 - 0:55
    that blocks the self-assertion
    of every idividual.
