is good and evil actually false? isn't all of this just a matter of different points of view in judging something? and why can you be said to be on the right side and not on the wrong side? and how do you know if you've been doing good and not the other way around? For example: someone robbed to feed the poor, then the robbery victim fought and stabbed the perpetrator, who is wrong here?

they are real. Why is there good? Because we were created in the image of God? Why is there evil? because we are not perfect and the world is governed by the Devil himself.

does it have to do with the point of view or the way of looking at the case?

I feel opposites always exist as it makes us aware of the existence of the other side. If there was just one thing, people would not understand what the opposite is and what is its effects on our life. Good and evil also is part of the same. If everything were good, people would not know what is evil and vice versa. So, existence of the later is essential to know the importance of the former.

@youfiq All tight, let's start! Is good and evil actually false? We know there are good things and bad things in the world. What do you mean by this question? Please explain the question a bit more?

You can always justify doing the wrong thing but that doesn't make it right.

You ask a very pertinent question. There are two sides to every story and often the true facts are not known so what appears good may, in fact, be evil and vice versa. Your last example is a good one.

Of course, it turns out that we have one thought, there will always be two things from every side that we can see, whether good or evil
