I agree that most people who are evil don't see themselves that way, and if you said "Hey! You're evil!" they'd roll their eyes and say "Oh, whatever". Again, if evil can do good and good can do evil, what detect really tells you is what set of spells and effects to rely on; heck, it's almost like blood type. Now, with that said, the Church of the Silver Flame is out to stamp out evil. But the point is that they view evil in the broader sense of its effect on the world as opposed to "what is detected with detect evil". If the evil priest serves the greater good, he gets to be part of the team (even if the paladins may keep a close eye on him and wait for him to slip up).</blockquote>
