Firefox Favourite Manga Dragonball	Can a human being be pure evil? Obviously the idea of what defines evil is very subjective. However I think there are still universal truths to its constitution. Perhaps there are more factors but I think these are the main three. No empathy or compassion. An understanding that one is doing wrong. Pleasure from committing and/or watching evil acts. If one has all of these traits then I think it might make them "evil." They transcend cultural morality. For instance being a killer in some places and circumstances makes one a hero. In some places sexual assault is nothing more than a prize for those heroes. But these three tenants are beyond that. No where is it the social norm to be without feeling or to get pleasure from other people's pain. Anywhere in the world those things will make you a bad person. Probably even evil if you are aware of what you are doing. Of course that's just my opinion.

Firefox Favourite Manga Dragonball	I'm not asking if people are born evil. I strongly believe that can't happen. But circumstances can condition a person's brain so that they lose anything which previously gave them any sense of humanity, without also making them ill. I also think that if someone can be saved, they probably weren't truly evil. Edited by Pelador, Mar 19 2016, 10:11 PM.

They can't really help it. I'd say true evil is when someone knows something is wrong and does it because of that and because they enjoy hurting people in the process. Evil is a choice not a mental illness.

E.g: Affably evil, Faux affably evil, noble demons, etc. http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/EvilTropes But can a human-being be pure evil? Yes, I think humans can be pure evil.

Maybe they grow out of it with teaching and life experiences, but I know for a fact that babies and kids can be some of the most evil creatures on this planet.

However they lack the awareness of what they are doing and they don't get pleasure from it either. Truly evil people know exactly what they are doing and they enjoy it.

They can be 99.9% evil but they will definitely never be 100% evil. Also, evil like you said is subjective and it will always will be subjective. Ergo,Some people might see a person has being pure evil but other people who are somewhat similar to that person may not see him as pure evil, in fact they might see it has pleasant. Therefore there is truly no universal/absolute evil. A person maybe vice now but he/she definitely started out not being evil i.e was pure/innocence.

When humanity dies out "good" and "evil" on the morality spectrum will be eliminated. There's natural, and unnatural. That's it.

Google Chrome Favourite Manga Tokyo Ghoul	Someone can be a psychopath and they can be considered pure evil due to the fact that they do not feel empathy for anything. So a psychopath has no conscience and a psychopath killing someone with a knife 20 stab wounds is probable the same as you brushing your teeth. Basically they would not have a problem sleeping that night and most of us would feel bad for running a squirrel over with out car because we are empathetic and not psychopaths.
