My definition of evil is anything done intentionally to cause harm to an individual or group.  The problem is that what is evil depends on point of view. General examples of evil ranging from minimal to explosive include lying, gossiping, fighting, murdering, and many others. From the perspective of the identifier of evil-doings, the behavior causes nothing good, only bad.

In today’s society, examples of evil are the common rape and murder crimes, the terrorist attack on September 11, or the shootings that have occured at schools. Evil of the same sort has occured in the past, examples being slavery, wars, or genocide. All of these are acceptable instances of evil; it’s something that simply isn’t right.
