Good vs.Evil -Brian Sato

The idea of good vs evil is nowhere near black and white. There is so much grey area that there is no absolute good and evil. Its not as clear as you would think. The concept of good and evil isn't very clear and has many obstacles in its way which makes it so confusing. Imagine a cop chasing a man who just stole cans of food from a store. He follows him to his home which is underneath a bridge and you realize he's stealing so that he can feed his kids and his wife. Stealing is condoned as bad and shouldn't happen but does it really mean that the homeless man is evil. All he is trying to do is feed his family and does it mean that the cop is evil if he arrests him? These type of scenarios are unclear and can have both options to be bad. Is the homeless person viewed as good or bad. It's all about perspective. Even good people do bad things. Bad people do good things. Can you say that the police officer is truly evil for arresting him even though he's doing his job. It all depends on perspective.
