Evil
The dictionary defines evil as morally wrong or bad, immoral or wicked. This definition is clearly present in the modern day world in our society and in others. The attack on September 11, 2001 is a very harsh representation of evil and how large of an impact it can have on the world and to people themselves. By crashing the planes into the towers and killing thousands of American people it crushed us mentally and literally physically. It will go down as possibly one of the worst and wicked deeds ever done by humans to other humans. In history Evil has been present since the world began and it will continue to thrive because of people. It is a part of human behavior no matter how big or small the idea or action that is considered evil is. In history almost ever person in the world knows what Adolf Hitler did do the Jewish population of Europe and his terrible rule in which he killed millions of people because of his mindset. Personally, I view this act as pure evil because of what happened to innocent men, women and children that had no need to die. In literature evil can come out and be shown in many different ways than in actual life because it can take on fictional forms such as monsters, demons, and other things that have no boundaries in non-fictional writing or in the real world. In some ways the defintion of being morally wrong or bad, immoral or wicked isn’t enough. Evil is such a strong force and negative force that it doesn’t even have adjectives to describe it.
