I truly believe, and you can call me crazy or paranoid or anything, or give me a BS answer, but I believe that this world is evil.
WHY, how?
Well look at how it runs. Business. Stock Market, buying/selling/trading. Every last thing is money and people are extremely fast, cut-throat, judgemental, and pretty much soulless. It's all about money.
Granted it's not like that everywhere and you can lead a good life and be happy, but I'm not talking about YOUR life, or YOUR friends, or your little corner of the world, which may be perfect for all I know,
I'm talking about the big picture.
It seems that it's run by evil principles.
The natural objective world isn't evil OR good. It doesn't exist, since humans give it meaning. It's simply nature, and that's not what I'm discussing either.
I'm pointing at the developed world, countries, businesses, societies around the world.
They all seem to run on very long structured, established, and quite "nazi" like business and authrority.

I think human nature is evil. Nature in general is evil. Survival. Humans have to adapt and survive as well, and we basically do anything and everything to survive and thrive.
So why do people pretend and put on a veneer for society when underneath that veneer, is a cold-hard biological-based reality?
Society on the outside, and you guys will probably back ur answers up by this, looks fine. Nice houses, cars, supermarkets, happy families, people doing things, working, yadda yadda, how you were raised. TV shows, music, it all feeds into this.
But no one looks at the big picture, and really questions what's going on, outside of your OWN percieved notions of reality and what not.
If you're really that dumb, and sit there like "uhhh ummm everythings finnnne man, chilll yo" or try to justify your own opinion with negativity or disagreement with what I just said, go on, but please back it up with something remotely worth considering.
I think bottom line, it's evil. not all. but, yea

All of it is based on Darwin's theory of Evolution. When a chimp gets mad he goes into a giant tantrum and pounds his fists on the ground madly, gets into fights with other chimps, or even tortures other smaller weaker chimps. When evolution occurred it did not completely change the being of the chimp.
This is why Hitler took his anger out on the Jews in WW II(perfect example). You will never change the true nature of an animals being. Human Beings have always been quiet evil inside.
As Sippers said "life feeds on Life". This is how it's always been in the animal kingdom.

I don't believe that our economic systems are evil. Evil implies a desire to harm others for the pure sake of harming others.
Certainly there are a lot of selfish people in the world.
But that evil system you hate -- it also drives innovation. Without the selfish interests, what motivation would people have to take risks or even to work extra hard to get ahead?
You complain that everything is about money. But money is just a representation of something else -- the effort that goes into producing a good or service. It's just a common bartering tool.
I'm not sure what your particular complaint is, but I don't think you can consider capitalism evil. It just presumes different ideals than you must have. It presumes that people should be rewarded based on their productivity and other criteria.

Define evil. You call it evil I call it life. Truly we give things name in order to have control and know what is really going on in this crazy world. Things u call good and evil are just words nothing more, It those after will truly decide what is what.Even after that it truly doesnt change thing, in the end its all a matter of faith of what u want to believe in that defines us, whether were right or wrong doesnt matter, its if u live how u think u should live.

The big picture encompasses more than the developed world.
The developed world IS pretty evil when you look at it broadly and generalize.
From your point of view, the world is evil. That's my BS answer.

You're right. The world's becoming more and more evil. It all started in 1976, when I was born.

Just what are you expecting? the bible tells us man is evil and desperately wicked. This is not how God created us, this is a result of man going against God and choosing to disobey. So here we are paying the price. We will not see perfect reign and peace on earth until Christ comes to set up his millennial reign.

Well its very neutral... let me put it that way. However, usually the good people get stepped on. The mistake people usually make is letting bad people walk all over them.
