Kristina has a very interesting theory of evil. She said

Through the eyes of an American, the terrorists of September 11th are evil, but from their point of view, they were doing something good.  They sacrificed themselves for a cause that they believed in and proved a point to America.

The idea that evil is in the eye of the beholder is very true. People in the middle east do not consider themsleves evil, they believe that they are doing what is right for their country. However in America we believe that the terrorist in the middle east are evil and they should be punished for their sins.  Another example of this is the Holocaust. Hitler did not belive that hes was doing anything evil, he believe that he was saving he country from the people that were ruining it. I believe that the slaughtering of millions of people can never he a good thing. These example prove the point that evil is in the eye of the beholder and that people definition can be extremely different.
