Can good exist without evil???

Question

Can good exist without evil???

Answer 1

No, without evil good would just be normal

Answer 2

yes. if you have no other option except for the good.

if you have more than one option to choose from... one will always be better than the other.  

Answer 3

No that would be like saying and dry exsist without wet well if there was no evil then how would we know the difference

Answer 4

there is no good and evil. we dont mean $hit, dont u understand? our deeds are so small and the outcome of all of our actions end up the same. WE DIE. tell me i'm wrong, but i'll win in about 70 years or less

Answer 5

I don't think you have to think about these two as being opposites, even though they are.  A better description would be side kicks.  And the problem is the evil wants to try everything in its power to bring the good down to its level.  I think we see this everyday with people who are negative and only complain about everything in their world.  It would definitely work better if the evil had an open mind when the good tried to influence the evil to be raised up a level!  Either way, I think we have to decide what works best in our life, and know the difference between the two.

Answer 6

Sure. It's evil that can't exist without good to hate.

Answer 7

Without evil we wouldn't know what good is.

Answer 8

As dark would not exist without Light.

As Presence would not exist without Absence.

So good cannot exist  without evil.

We must have the one to really know what the other is.

Answer 9

Yes it is happening today.

Answer 10

What a lovely world this would be without any evil in it, as we would be able to get on with our lives without fear of anything, and our news reports would not be filled with hearing that another person has been killed by some thoughtless person, or no bombers killing hundreds even thousands of people. Yes that would be the ideal world, living in peace and harmony all around the world, but i feel that someone somewhere could spoil it all as they may get "bored" living in the ideal world and will try to find a way to upset the apple cart, so maybe good cannot exist without evil, as much as we would love it to, as there is always someone who would spoil it.

Answer 11

yes. all of us are made in God's image and goodness of God. therefore God created good ones. Evil ones are created AFTER good ones but turn into evil as that is his choice/ or greediness...

Answer 12

yes. take one o out of the word good.

add a d to the word evil.

then let the two words deal with each other.

it is their problem  

Answer 13

Crystal is right. If your familiar with the Yin Yang symbol, it says good cannot exist without bad. Not everyone chooses the same thing. There can be a majority or a minority of good and bad, but not "EVERYONE" will be good. Supposedly, your favorite car..not everyone is gonna want that car. There's a whole philosophy behind it, but if you think about it, if everyone was good and there were no chaos in the world no one would read the paper. If the world was full of good it would get boring. If the world was full of evil and chaos, then there would be no hope.
