Good vs. Evil

Judgments Good vs. Evil There be galore(postnominal) concepts that be determined in the eye of the beholder. People apply antithetical morals souls morals could be seen as corruption to someone else. What someone considers beautiful, a nonher might consider app aloneing. A persons definition of justice could be someone elses definition of illegal. There argon some(prenominal) factors as to why we all get hold of diametrical paradigms, such as the way we were raised, our past experiences, our culture, or our faith. Consequently, we all judge accordingly to our own perspectives. In East of Eden, tush Steinbeck states that one can be assumed ingenuous or mephistophelian once the person has died.With our different paradigms, we would have different perspectives on good and evil. Therefore, we do non know the ready definition of good or evil, so it would not be right for us to judge someone at all before or after their death. Everything we see is perspective, besides how ar e we so sure it is the truth? Take for example, a flower. To a forgiving, it is small bountiful to hold in his hand to an insect, it is big enough to be a home. The human and the insect are looking at the same flower, but view it differently. Is the ant simply miniature, or is the human just too big?It cannot be deemed because there are different paradigms that manipulate our judgment. There are also more serious cases that this applies to. On July 5, 2011, Casey Anthony was found not shamefaced for murdering her young daughter Caylee. Observers were stunned and shock by the jurys verdict. Jurors claimed that it could not be proven that Casey Anthony was guilty because there was not enough evidence. There were only facts that led up to the conclusion that Casey could be the murderer, but there were no raw and veritable facts that clearly showed that Casey was responsible for the death of her daughter.The death penalty weighed a solidification on the deliberation of the jurors. They had a life in their hands conclusions and inferences were not enough to find her guilty. The jury could be deemed good for following the natural law and abiding by their oath, or they could be deemed evil for letting a potential murderer get away with a crime. There are many positions on this verdict based on our viewpoints, but we do not actually know the truth. There are so many perspectives in the universe, we can never be so sure which is the correct one. Without knowing the truth, our judgments arent justified.They say there is a story rear end everything. Stories usually have two sides to them, maybe even more.

But should it often get along to someone that there may be multiple unknown sides to a story? Marilyn Monroe was found dead in her bedroom from an overdose on August 5, 1962. Monroes death remains a mystery and has li ve one of the most debated conspiracy theories of all time. Some people believe that her death was a homicide, and some people believed it was a suicide.There could be many unknown explanations to Monroes death, and we may never find out. Without fellowship of how she died, our judgments are not rationalized. There are always going to be unanswered questions and ambiguous endings. As humans, what we believe is virtuous usually leads back to our viewpoints and reason of life. Everyone has their life structured a certain way according to their beliefs. Our beliefs have a huge impact on our mentality and actions whether we believe in God, Buddha, Atheism, Karma, or anything at all. With differentiating religion and beliefs, there is no validity to our judgments.Without the knowledge of the truth, we are not able to judge righteously we would be assume blindly. It is a human instinct to judge. We judge to pass laws so company can function in an orderly manner, we judge to protect o urselves from revile by distinguishing what seems to be dangerous or harmful, and we also judge to make decisions to benefit ourselves, such as choosing the college to our desire. Although these are rational reasons as to why we should judge, they also lead to war, terrorist attacks, stereotypes, and prejudice.
