Rick Marino 3

The ongoing battle between good and evil is a staple in film, literature, and other art. Humans devour these stories like bags of potato chips. We find a steady diet of tales of clashing morals to be delightfully delicious. However, the notion of good and evil is entirely subjective. and therefore the concept of absolute good and evil is not set in stone. Ask any storm trooper who the "good" is in Star Wars. They will answer the Siths and Darth Vader. Ask any death-eater who the "good" in Harry Potter is. They will answer Voldemort. Ask any Orc who the "good" is in Lord of the Rings. They will reply Sauron. Ask any Decepticon  who the "good" is in Transformers. They will say Megatron. Claiming that Luke Skywalker is absolute good is like saying salad is tasty. It's an opinion. Good and evil are just opinions!
