No , in fact I think it is a draw. There are just as many evil people out there as good. But our culture celebrates the evil people do. The news Always tells about the evil more than the good. But then again I believe G-d and the Devil are twins. They have been fighting since birth. But in this case it is good that is stronger but G-d Can't destroy His brother. So There will always be good and evil.

I disagree. I'm living proof ,both can reside in the same being of Equal strength! Many think I'm nice . That's because they have Never seen me truly angry! I should come with a sign saying ' Warning! I go from nice to B!tch in 6 seconds!"

Good and evil may always be with us. I think it is a choice we often have to make in which force is stronger in us.

We are rewarded with the efforts we put into our life. Good overcoming evil is the finest reward the world can receive.

Yeah , good and evil have been around for centuries. It is what it is ... like in modern times , for example corrupt officials , people abusing powers bestowed upon them to do evil and veil with goodness around .. all these things. From what I think , evil is mostly looked upon as goodness whilst good appears to be bad. Things are not what it seems at times , and that's the biggest challenge of today's world.
Last time it was purely battle and survival of the fittest like fist fights. In modern times , it's everything in the mind. Good and evil using conspiracy theories .. (like in movies) I sometimes wonder whether those kinds of things happen in real life and I'm not surprised if they are. The only flicker of hope is to continue doing good and prevent from doing evil. Hopefully all evil things will cease someday , like people killing others on the street to rob , or taking someone's dignity , stripping others of their desired promotions , titles and etc.

Thank you for sharing your comments. Good and evil will still do battle as long as time goes on. It just seems that what good and evil battle for can change over the years.

No, I don't think that good triumphs over evil all the time. I think that theogens want us to think that so they can teach us and make us believe in christianity. I think that evil quite often triumphs. If you think about it how evil evil can be. And how evil can good be. Doesn't work does it?

sender, life will always be a battle of good and evil. I think God cast away the serpent to earth around the time He sentenced Adam and Eve to labor.
That means temptation is always around the corner.

Oooops, I forgot to answer the question.
Yes, in the end, good will triumph over evil.

Depends on you, if you let evil dictates you then you will not hear good. The quarrel between good and evil is within us and not coming from God,the angel,and satan. If you have humble desires in this world, I do not think evil will penetrate us, but due to obsession of material things we do not mind sinning at all. And so, as I observe only few uplifts good most especially now that people are getting selfish to be on top of greed.

Our views of what is good and what is evil are important to us. We don't all see good and evil in the same ways. it can make for a difference of opinion.

We should always see to it that we are always at the side of good to please God.

Well, when it comes to good and evil overall this is something that will always be there from day one back in the Bible days between God and Satan. I believe that as long as people refuse to accept Jesus as their savior and turn from their wicked ways there will always be evil in this world. A lot of it ends up being man made over anything else, as well as the Temptations persuading them to lean towards some of them as well.
But personally Good things will always over shadow bad as when things start to change anymore towards bad that is only more of a sign I believe in the Rapture taking place and all the people having to make a choice which life they want to lead and pay for it in the end.

Yes, I feel that good will always triumph over evil. Even now, when society has degenerated so much and there is unacceptable violence around us, there are more good people than bad people around us and this is what is holding society together. Whether religious or not, no parent teaches their kids bad or unacceptable social behavior. Man is a social being and we always try to fit in and in order to do that, we all need to abide by certain accepted and traditional values which we know are ‘good’…we pass on these values and knowledge to our kids and in this way, the goodness spreads. Yes, evil does read its ugly head and most people are complacent initially to confront it, but ultimately, people will never bow down to evil…its against our inherent nature.

Sometimes it can be misunderstood to what is acceptable and what is denied between the forces of good and evil. Still, having good prevail is always a good sign of the world.

Hi sender
I do not believe there is anything like evil or good. All is fair and if a person did not feel that fairness, he would not do anything that you think as evil. It is all about our perception and beliefs.
Example:
A beggar asked for it from the shopkeeper for free as he did not have funds to pay. Shopkeeper denied as he did not want a charity. The beggar stole a bread. - to the shopkeeper: the beggar was doing an evil thing. From the beggar's point - he did it to survive and surival is always good from anyone's point of view.

Believing in something is often all that w have. A belief in good and evil comes with what we are taught and what we choose to believe in.

I believe it. Moreover, if we live well, we'll be more happy than we live evil, even we're rich!

Putting two strong forces against each other can be a battle to continue as long as we give it the power. thanks for your response.

I think actually "good" and "evil" will always coexist, such as light and shadow. Abstract notions designed by human thought, and from a particular point of view, there will be as long, as there is human judgment in the universe. In reality nothing is not bad nor good. Everything is just ...

We don't all see ideas in the same ways. we give more consideration to some things over others. What we see as good and evil might be seen in a totally different light from someone else.

The concept of good and evil is an invention of the human mind. In the rest of nature there is no such thing. Each natural thing has it's place in the creation of the Universe. But hmans have the need to feel that they are in control and in order to do this invented good and evil. Basic premise being if it's good save it and if it's evil kill it. In our unbelievable need to control we have invented an order on one side is good and on the other is evil, all things are placed within this order and thus we try to control our lives. Foolish beings that we are all we have created is extreme disfunction and much sorrow.

There is much more to experience than we know in the universe. Taming good and evil may beyond our means and just out of our reach until the time is ours to experience.

Evil might get it's time to dance but goodness will always win out in the end. Have you ever thought why that is??? Evil hurts people. When people are hurt they strike back no matter how long it takes to rid themselves of the hurt. Goodness brings joy to people. We all love that. So why do people choose evil?? They simply do not understand what they are really doing. God will return their actions so it will all become clear in time.

As it says in a motley crue song, "Good always over powers the evils of all mankind." Look I do not believe there is these two people fighting one another. It's all up to us. Some people are good and some people are evil. I guess thats life. There is no magic.
