Good and Evil Perspectives to Know

In writing this book, I set out with two main goals: to create an accessible resource for anyone curious about life’s big questions, and to satisfy my own quest for answers. While I often find the answers I seek, they frequently lead to more questions-especially on the nature of good and evil. This concept has long intrigued me, and for many, it’s a central question about God.

Over the past forty years, I’ve explored these questions across the globe and contemplating the universe’s mysteries. While my conclusions may not resonate with everyone, I hope to guide readers in finding answers that bring them peace. Understanding good and evil can be deeply personal, and I believe there’s no single ＂right＂ answer-what matters is discovering a perspective that aligns with your beliefs.

Various perspectives on good and evil emerge from religion, philosophy, and influential thinkers, each offering unique insights. Some overlap, while others diverge significantly. I invite you to consider questions like: What defines good and evil for you? Are they universal or culturally specific? Is there a moral foundation, and, if so, whose morals are they? These reflections can encourage deeper exploration and build empathy.

As you read, I hope this book serves not just as information but as a tool for growth. You’ll find a thoughtfully curated bibliography at the end to deepen your understanding. May you enjoy the journey, finding both wisdom and perhaps a few surprises along the way. D. G. Reagle
