Good and evil are as old as ethics or morality itself. For without
an understanding of religious or philosophical ethics, the moral
existence of good and evil would be impossible to comprehend; the
term good, for example, would be exclusively a matter of subjective
personal likes and dislikes-in other words, a mere matter of taste,
differing from individual to individual with no real obligation to
the public good or safety. As it currently stands in philosophy,
for instance, the term good may be understood as engaging in
righteous conduct; the term good may also be understood as an
object that corresponds and fulfills natural needs inherent in
human nature. These natural needs, for example, which are deeply,
rooted in human nature, manifest themselves in our human desire for
life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness, among other things. In
these two senses, the term good is an objective universal value,
based on the reality of man (by man I mean human beings everywhere,
of course). From natural needs, we derive the doctrine of human
rights. It logically follows that the things we have a natural
human need for, we as human beings also have a natural right to.
This idea is not only used in the real world that you and I live
in; it is also used in the storyteller's world of fiction or
imaginary literature. Anything working to defeat or frustrate the
good in the real world or in the storyteller's world is judged
evil. This is of the utmost importance to those who believe in
right and wrong. For right and wrong always follow good and evil.
Society can never know what right or wrong is in the domain of
social human affairs, without first knowing what is good and what
is evil, and what makesit so. In Trapped Between the Extremes of
Good and Evil, we enter a fictional world and explore the
phenomenon of good and evil through the actions of an international
serial killer, angels and demons, one twin brother's hatred of the
other, and a San Francisco detective caught in t
