"Well," said Pooh, "what I like best -- " and then he had to stop and think. Because although Eating Honey was a very good thing to do, there was a moment just before you began to eat it which was better than when you were, but he didn't know what it was called.

Leslie, Shadowland Dweller, thanks. That is a good way, but I see that you can only quote from one person if you use it. But then, you could just always copy&paste the other stuff. Hitting the quote button would save time.

Does anyone want to take a stab at defining evil from a non-religious view?

I tend to think that the concept of evil and good are central to religious beliefs. How does a culture define, or does it even try to define evil if it has no religious background to base good and evil on?
