Evil is generally defined as the opposite or absence of good. Although in everyday usage it is often used in a more limited way to describe the influence of evil and against the common good, it can be a broader concept. It is generally viewed as a phenomenon that takes several forms, such as moral evil as originating from a moral agent and natural evil as natural diseases and disasters. While some religious and philosophical worldviews focus on "evil versus good," others reject the existence of evil and its necessity in describing people.Evil can represent an immoral act or attitude, but the recognition of evil is inseparable from the circumstances in which the act was committed, in which suffering as the product of human conflict is the real root of evil. Definitions of evil vary, as do diagnoses and analyzes of motives. The principles commonly associated with the evil person are unbalanced actions including: anger, lying, revenge, hatred, psychological trauma, convenience, selfishness, ignorance…etc. Eventually, one or more people become victims.
