We're all aware that in any disagreement, both sides lable the opposition
"evil". But I'd argue there is a simple, objective, non-culturally-derived
way of distinguishing evil from non-evil.
If a philosophy is anti-life or anti-human, it's evil. Otherwise, not.
The Nazis were obviously anti-life, at least where the wrong racial
varieties were concerned.
The Communists were anti-human, at least in the sense that they sought to
subjugate human wants and needs to the needs of the state.
The Islamo-Facists are most certainly anti-life, even to the extent of
glorifying and exaulting its opposite: death.
