Don't have a definition for it, i don't quite believe in "evil" or "good" at least not in a pure form of it. Depends on the situation i guess interesting topic though.

And you have not given any example. Just a pathetic statement.
You dont know anyone from these forums. So that is just a stereotype.
So many assumptions. You actually dont even know the people you talk about.
Recklessness: I dont want to help others.

Isn't acting for personal gain natural and amusement in the case of humans.
I think caring either way can be tools for evil, but I don't think most are evil. I think Evil is pretty rare and the source is pretty much on of it's own. I think that is the temptation of control, to stifle choice even without reason and by default making people slaves.
I mean I believe in the rule of law and that there should be authority and order.
But everything should have it's limits.

Not always, I think that is a myth, that is perpetuated by one type of person and not so much about others, and by default some get pegged as being creepy, rude or anti social.
I am an introvert, in addition to a whole bunch things and for the most part I hate people in general, but that isn't everybody else's problem that is my problem and I know this and I deal with it.
Now saying I hate people doesn't mean I wish them ill, or anybody made to suffer or dead specifically. But it is true I find the idea of people on a personal level very, very exhausting and extremely uncomfortable.
I enjoy being alone, I rather not be asked or left out of events or parties. Which some people I know who I am friends with are the opposite. I love those few I known as friends for years, but even with them I have the same issues.
I am sure that can come come across evil especially considering my perspective not actions can be a bit unsettling for others.

You're out of your mind.
Going by this logic, it's not evil to torture a human being because humans also do great harm (worse than a rat ever would).
This person is a gold medallist and a role model for hundreds of thousands of people (and impressionable young minds). They should know better than to post themselves laughing as they torture a helpless animal. She can hate the animal all she wants, but that doesn't excuse the actions.
As for context, get real. They tortured an animal and treated it as some sort of joke. Please tell me what possible context there is for that. He (or she) is a cunt.
Religion, plain and simple!
Well it isn't a positive use of the same word that could also relate to helping someone out or looking out for them.
I think if you mean being aware and conscious of our social and other kinds of environment, I don't think one has to be concerned about others to do that. Over all I don't think that is GOOD.
Anymore than Concern in a negative way is Evil.
I think hurting people is stupid, I think having a lack of concern for ones own environment is self harm as well. I would say most might agree.
I am not going to plug wholes in the ship I am on along with everyone else, help anyone else, or hinder those maybe aware there are holes in the ship, and trying to make sure it doesn't sink so none go down or sink.

Which goes against your values. Doesn't make it objectively evil. It makes it objectionable to you. What I am saying is that if you had grown up in a different context (like a village in Africa) you might see things a bit differently.
For what it's worth, I agree with you that the act is pretty objectionable and would be inexcusable from someone with a first world upbringing. The difference is I maybe have a bit more insight into the circumstances that would have shaped the person growing up and the values they were raised with. Whereas you just want to react, it seems, with moral outrage rather than rational thought. It's not right to, from your priveleged position, judge the actions of people from a far less priveleged background. It's pretty offensive actually.
Ok, that's cool. I accept your position. And for being a racist elitist who and prejudices people based on their gender, I call you evil. FULL STOP. Don't even try to deny it, or make excuses, or even a reasonable argument. Not going to bother reading it. Because I have decided. So there.
To people like you I only wish one thing:
BE JOBLESS. Apply again and again for all kinds of jobs just to get rejected over and over.
Yes it is possible. I have studied engineering and have a good diploma. No one wanted to hire me. I was jobless for a few years and now I am working as a friggin secretary but it's a limited position that ends Sept. 2018. (Thank God I finally found at least something)
By your definition I would have been one of those "leeches".
People like you need to realize the hard math: # unemployed > # of vacant positions. 100% employment is
a) mathematically impossible
b) not wanted by the industry, because it would enable the worker to choose, effectively giving them the power to dictate terms.
Yes, I realize that there are some leeches that really do not want to work. But many unemployed people try really hard and still get rejected. Do you have any idea what that does to a persons self esteem in the long run? Last thing they need is "snobby, lucky people" trampling on them too just to make themselves feel superior.
Nature is evil.
Greed, Hate, Vengeance, Discrimination are all things nature has created because being evil is easier and more beneifical in terms of survival than being good.
But that is perspective, a rat isn't going to harm you out of spite either, but if it thinks there is cause to do so, it isn't going to hesitate if it figures no other choice exist.
Human being are more intelligent and have more power therefor, it is presumed we have the greater responsibility because our choices have the biggest impact mostly reflected back on us.
Someone torturing another human being isn't doing so generally out of need, they might choose to, but what is behind that choice could be a lack of understanding, or a greater want for something more valued.
It's a defect.
Evil, true evil I don't think is that particular, evil serves itself, not it's agent or agency. I believe that is the temptation and the rub. Doing harm to others killing war without clear purpose especially when there are tools to better problem solving.
That can only be evil, if it is known, and that is a choices made. Very few literally want to world to burn with themselves in it.

Nature simply is, I think it is a mistake to believe it has any allegiance to GOOD or EVIL.

I feel the same.
I too have very few friends I dearly love but even being with them is draining my mental energy (despite me enjoying their company).
In general I am only at peace and truly comfortable when I am alone.
As much as I would like a wife (I'm still human) I don't think I could cope with being with another human every day.
