What is evil? And what is the right definition of evil. If we think deeply the concept of evil we can
roughly explain that an evil person is an individual who is not abiding the
laws, norms, and culture of the society.
But is the law right enough that we can say the person is an evil
person? Every country around the world
are ruled by law, these laws are being debated by intellectual minds to make
sure that the laws being imposed by a given country is fair enough for every
citizen to follow.
An evil ideology of
one country might be a righteous norm in another country. This dilemma will create the conflict of
ideas that will eventually confuse the public especially those people that are
always transit in their way of life.
Globalization is far reachable if people around the world are confused
with the definition of evil. Kant
further discusses the reality that is affecting mankind. People will start to
change the definition of evil when the moral setting of society will
change. Society’s change of culture
depends upon the gradual acceptance of personal thinking and behavior.
This gradual acceptance will become a reality
of life, thus reality of life will mold the true meaning of humanity and
goodness. Further inference of Kant
points out to the definition of radical evil, this stage will not only disturb
the individuals way of life but it will exaggerate to other people and the
community’s freedom of living. A concept
or a behavior is evil if we mirror the defined evil character towards the
accepted moral values of the land. Nature of morality will change through times,
along the change of morality beliefs and cultural norms will gradually fit to
the right and accepted social values.
To
further analyze the factors that make the change of moral values and the idea
of evil, let me highlight the old analogy of bloodletting. Long time ago if a person is sick of any kind
and the Medical practitioner cannot fully diagnose the real health problem of
the person, bloodletting will be initiated next to satisfy the belief that the
bacteria or virus will literally separate from the human body. This medical concept today is not accepted in
the field of medical research. Thus,
concepts and values will change when new behavior of variables will dominate
the general population and eventually change the existing theory being
practiced. In the long run, science and
technology will change the definition of evil and morality.
At present, there are things in life that can
be morally right but in the future it’s an idea of evil and immorality. Science and technology can change the nature
of evil and morality proving the reality of the hypothesized notions at
hand. Revolutionizing the present
society through scientific research and technological advancement will
automatically change the minds of the society and the values practiced. Laws of the land are being rectified and reinstated
to make sure that laws are just towards the general public. As the nations around the world are becoming
united in all faculties of life, changing definitions of ideologies for the
betterment of society is the true meaning of modern morality allowing to
isolate the real definition of evil.
