Evil isn't a substance, it's a mind-state. Really, the argument of 'Does evil exist?' comes down in the end to: "Depends what you mean by evil."
Define evil and then you can begin to answer the questions.
On another forum, we once discussed whether the chicken or the egg came first. I pointed out that it depends on what you mean by "chicken egg". If you mean an egg that was laid by a chicken, the chicken came first; and if you mean an egg from which hatches a chicken, then the egg came first.
This seems a lot simpler, but it's not really.
~please give me a clear definition of evil, its causes and its effects.
