Every act could be justified by an intention that was good, even if the intention was not good.Evil intentions are those that take pleasure from the harm of others.There is no act of pure evil- the bombing of Hiroshima was intended to stop much more killing in the name of war. A suicide bomber belives he is doing the work meant to be done. Even Hitler probably had some reason, however fake and small, to massacure the jews.No person is truly evil. No person is truly good. All acts could be commited by someone with an intention of evil or goodness.However, I belive that no intention is never truly evil, as it is never truly good. There is always some explanation besides evil in the mind of the evil doer. Also, there is always the slightest malice or vengefulness in the mind of the person killing for the purest of reasons.While evil is a human invention, there is no one, there never has been anyone, and there never will be anyone who was, is or will be purely evil or good. Because all actions can be given an intention of goodness or evil, and all humans act out of good and evil simotamiously.</blockquote>
