All life is evil, because all life is selfish. Our greatest evils are sex and apathy.
Sex is evil, because it creates life, and all life is evil.
Apathy is evil, because ignoring the plight of your fellow man is evil.
Taking life is not evil, but the way in which you take it is. Taking life in apathy is evil. Sometimes taking life is necessary to avoid apathy, like euthanasia.

Actually I'm going to deny you twice here. How to make sex 'not-evil': You go and do this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VasectomyThen you can have as much sex as you want. Apathy is not evil. Premise 1: I'm apathetic. (I do not feel the need for emotions and such crap, logic is the way to go) Premise 2: Lauda is not evil. Conclusion: Apathetic people are not evil.

I like the yin-yang symbol concept. Good & Evil working in tandem, not against each other. I believe all humans are inherently selfish, a vice. And the attempt to rid us of evil is stupid .Goodness comes from cooperation amongst evil. 2 wrongs make a right.

The thing is that God made us to make love only to procreate,so sex is a sin ,so is evil,so if you do vasectomy your evil.

I always thought of yin yang symbolizing the non-dual (which can include good and evil but not limit itself to it.) I'm not saying you're wrong but your explanation is partial.Then you deny a lot of developmental psych evidence.

And the attempt to rid us of evil is stupid. I agree, evil should be embraced at a subjective level. This helps combat identify with your shadow material. Goodness comes from cooperation amongst evil. What does this mean? or did you mean to say "cooperation [with] evil." 2 wrongs make a right. Explain.

I'm not saying you're wrong but your explanation is partial.Then you deny a lot of developmental psych evidence. Yeah, I'm using the yin-yang for my example. Main thing I like to get from it, is that two forces work together, not against each other. I believe people are selfish in 1 of 4 ways. They care about their way of life, their possessions, their reputation, or their emotions. The last two is what we consider unselfish. Not sure what you mean by shadow material.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_R._PriceOther work in evolutionary theory
Price developed a new interpretation of Fisher's fundamental theorem of natural selection, the Price equation, which has now been accepted as the best interpretation of a formerly enigmatic result.[7] He wrote what is still widely held to be the best mathematical, biological and evolutionary representation of altruism. He also pioneered the application of game theory to evolutionary biology, in a co-authored 1973 paper with John Maynard Smith.[11] Furthermore Price reasoned that in the same way as an organism may sacrifice itself and further its genes (altruism) an organism may sacrifice itself to eliminate others of the same species if it enabled closely related organisms to better propagate their related genes. This negative altruism was described in a paper published by W. D. Hamilton and is termed Hamiltonian spite.
Price’s 'mathematical' theory of altruism reasons that organisms are more likely to show altruism toward each other as they become more genetically similar to each other. As such, in a species that requires two parents to reproduce, an organism is most likely to show altruistic behavior to a biological parent, full sibling, or direct offspring. The reason for this is that each of these relatives’ genetic make up contains (on average in the case of siblings) 50% of the genes that are found in the original organism. So if the original organism dies as a result of an altruistic act it can still manage to propagate its full genetic heritage as long as two or more of these close relatives are saved. Consequently an organism is less likely to show altruistic behavior to a biological grandparent, grandchild, aunt/uncle, niece/nephew or half-sibling (each contain one-fourth of the genes found in the original organism); and even less likely to show altruism to a first cousin (contains one-eighth of the genes found in the original organism). The theory then holds that the further genetically removed two organisms are from each other the less likely they are to show altruism to each other. If true then altruistic (kind) behavior is not truly selfless and is instead an adaptation that organisms have in order to promote their own genetic heritage.
Helping the homeless
As part of an attempt to prove his theory right or wrong Price began showing an ever increasing amount (in both quality and quantity) of random kindness to complete strangers. As such Price dedicated the latter part of his life to helping the homeless, often inviting homeless people to live in his house. Sometimes, when the people in his house became a distraction, he slept in his office at the Galton Laboratory. He also gave up everything to help alcoholics, yet as he helped them they stole his belongings causing him to fall into depression.[citation needed]
He was eventually thrown out of his rented house due to a construction project in the area, which made him unhappy because he could no longer provide housing for the homeless. He moved to various squats in the North London area, and became depressed over Christmas, 1974.
Death
Unable to prove his theory right or wrong Price committed suicide on January 6, 1975, using a pair of nail scissors to cut his own carotid artery. His body was identified by his close colleague W.D. Hamilton.[12] Friends said he committed suicide because of despondency over his inability to continue helping the homeless. Dude killed himself after trying to prove his theory, and you cannot do TRULY selfless things for people when there is no payback for you.

Goodness comes from cooperation amongst evil. What does this mean? or did you mean to say "cooperation [with] evil." 2 wrongs make a right. Explain. Two people may work together to achieve a common goal. Amongst themselves, there is goodness because they are cooperating. They have apathy with respect to the rest of the world. Capitalism works better than communism, because capitalism accounts for the evil selfish nature of humans. Communism expects all people to be good non-evil people, even the people who run the government, which is not the case. Of course, I'm not saying pure capitalism/communism works. Fuck what I said about two wrongs make a right. I meant 2 evil ppl cooperate to achieve a common goal. Cooperation is the 'right'. If all the people in the world (selfish evil ppl) would work together, the world would be a better(right) place.

Turns out the old guy isn't strong enough to get the lugs off so, so I change the tire. I didn't do it for money or recognition or because it was a friend...I did it just because it was the right thing to do. Was that not altruistic because as I left I felt good for having done it?

According to his simultaneous misunderstanding of basic math and sociology, no. His misinterpretation of a tautology necessarily means that your "good feeling" is selfish and somehow bad.

In the model which he mistakenly calls a law, that "good feeling" is considered looking after yourself. The supposition is that you will help those who you perceive as most like you. By helping someone else, you are helping yourself. It's very Kantian in the circular dependencies.

To add onto that... That is a good explanation for how evolution has reinforced social animals like us to act altruistically at times. It isn't really a good argument that we aren't acting altruistically.

What if I don't get this feeling at all? Where is my payback then. I sometimes look at the situation and decide whenever to help the individual or not. I help more often strangers, since I don't really need payback and can't judge if they deserve it or not.
