In calling something good, you must also call its opposite evil. You could never have a world that is purely good because you would have nothing to contrast good with. Nothing would seem good, because you have never learned what isn't good.

How about nothing is good and nothing is evil. How does one define good, something that he/she belives is desiarable? Well what if someone else does not agree. Is ther a threshole, if so many people say its good then its good? How can we define a concept such as this.
I think that there is nothing that is fundamentaly good nor fundamentally evil. There are just some things we have emotional inclinations to as being desiarable. While others are undesiarable.

By evil, I just mean what is commonly accepted as evil, but you do bring up a really good point. Are there things that are inherently evil or are good and evil completely subjective words? I’ve heard this before while reading some books on Buddhism. Buddha would agree with you on that, or so I have read. There is nothing actually “good” or “bad” there are just things you percieve as good or bad.
