How exactly is that evil?
I'm not saying that's evil, I'm just asking what evil is since it's not selfishness.

I guess I've always thought that evil is basically selfishness taken to the extreme. But now that this forum tells me I'm wrong, I'm curious what other people think evil actually is.

I'm willing to accept that you aren't evil, only selfish. But if selfishness isn't evil, what is evil?
