Depends on what your definition of evil is. God did it. Does that make God evil?
The above in no way implies that I am a believer. End of disclaimer.
For those who keep pointing to the Ten Commandments, please, understand that the statement is not "Thou shalt not kill." The statement is correctly rendered as "Do not commit murder." There is a big difference.... A little more information on this: Though the King James version uses poetic sounding language, in the Hebrew it simply says, "No murder."

You sound like your talking about a person who pulls the switch on the electric chair, is that what your referring too. It does say in the bible "Thou shall not Kill", so it's mind blowing to think about this because nowhere does it say except if you kill someone for evil or for killing another. Who am I to be the judge of someone who does this to rid this world of the people like serial killers, or people who just kill because they have no conscience, I don't feel as if I should judge these people, I'm sure they judge themselves all the time, but as for saying that they are evil, no, I wouldn't.

Killing doesn't make a person evil. The reasons why they kill make them evil.
Everyone sins to greater or lesser degrees. It is better to save a sinner from sin, than to kill them.

If somebody kills innocent people, yes, evil; but if somebody kills somebody who is evil, no, theyre just doing what is necessary to protect others.

What happens when he accidentally or unknowingly kills an innocent person? Judge, jury and executioner all in the same package is just asking for trouble.

Depends on who that person is.
If he's also a sinner, then he's a hypocrite. Unless there's extenuating circumstances (he's a judge imposing the death penalty because that's what the law requires, he's a soldier defending his people, he did it in self defense, etc.).
If He's not a sinner, i'd say He has the right to do whatever He wants to those people, because then i'd say He was God.

To society a resounding yes ... but to life itself is part of the system is part of the fabric of life , it is called a necessary evil , is part of the fate each of us will face during our life time , even the evil person is accomplishing a predetermined fate of the ones he is injuring.

When the Judgment is confused for the Will, you have evil; the Will is positive, the Judgment is negative. i.e. When people believe acting on rage is an act of desire, they are evil.

If you kill humans, you are evil.
