Elaborate on this quotation, what did Aristotle mean, why is it always the BAD that is the focal of controversy??? Isn't good ever a competitor??? 10 points best answer. Good Luck!

evil does bring some together,and it does split others.



evil brings those who have an evil thought ,who are willing to do what ever, that they are able to as long as Satan helps them through it ;to reach their wishes and goals in life.(which we all know,those wishes and goals have never been more then a empty thought and easy tempted by Satan.and at the end they will die,by reached as much as 0,0 as result for a worthy life, but with much of bad reports to answer about how they lived, in the next life in front of GOD.)as we know GOD the Almighty gives every human the right; to choose the way of life (the way between right and wrong) and that is the main reason of our time in life to see,discover and feel with all our senses and then chose our way of living (some of us goes very far by testing, as far as to kill,rape,steal,and all the worst that a normal and GOD fairy won`t do,because GOD have given us this mercy and gift, that we know between the right and wrong without testing it,specially the big sins,and Satan knows that too,and that`s why he has a hard work ,to fool us to do big sins.)but see and know that GOD is the most compassion& mercyfull :and forgives those who regret with the deppest of their heart, for what he/she has done .(GOD is all knowing) even the worst soul that me and you might know about,only if he/she regret and begs for forgivness they might also be forgiven,,because we don't see& don`t know, what GOD sees and knows about every soul that we meet. but always remember if any of us are a part of those i wrote about ,and regrets,if you stil are alive try to do as much as good ,so maybe we can change the whole world by GOD`s help,,becouse those who have seen bad and good knows more then those who only have been throgh good( i think)lol



may GOD keep us away from the seductions and temptations of satan(may GOD`s curse be on him 4 ever



dear Noah Hope:what you say is true enough ,and i do agree with you on this one,,but remember also satan(may GOD`s curse be on him 4 ever) will not be satisfied by me and you doing small sins,and will continue his temptation til we do bigger and bigger sins,,remember even the smallest dirty thought on our brain is not from our self,but it is from satan

Evil Brings Men Together

My complexion of this is that he meant man kind. not just men.

example when fighting the crusades the English were under the intuition of fighting evil for the good of the church bringing England a world dominating power in the military Field for the first time it began of the first crusade that England took part in.



(Templar knights) a prime example. Gaining power within the church. then having been turned for becoming to power man strikes its own creations. power hungry drives the evil in men,(man kind)

that is what i believe Aristotle to say this during his time there was many ways that were not meant to be fought in the name of god. be he was smart this was in the name of power hungry kings belittling anyone who opposed them.



this is being brought off topic its about evil brining men together not who gave what right.



there is good in the world men cause and distorys all its own creations.



bam there's your sign

Yes: he implied nothing, it's a clear statement.

Evil is a sure fired way to profit that's why it's so easy to assemble a group to carry out crime. Bad is not the focus of controversy, it's the focus a lot of hand wringing and blather that leads no where.

No.

Evil plans or actions contradict with our conscience. It is therefore needs to be justified. Justification stands either on proof or sharing the same opinion. So, if a group of people agrees on justifying each other, voila, anything can be justified.

I think good is a big competitor.



Many people do good things, but they do it quietly. Bad people do things publicly.



There should be segments on the news devoted to normal people doing helpful things. Someone feeding the poor, let the world know that there is good left!!
