Assignment 3- Ella Jensen

Joe and Chris are best friends. Neither have done a single wrong thing in their life and they both have kind loving parents. Suddenly, Joe starts doing drugs and he's making decisions he's never made before; smoking, stealing, and getting into fights. Chris was raised the same way as Joe and is doing just fine but his best friend has gone down the deep end. The only difference is the external influence of drugs. This illustrates how I feel about bad versus evil. It does make a good storyline or movie to have these undeniably good people fighting the world's "evil" to make society safer but they're just not truly evil. There is never not an external reason for bad behavior. On the other hand, since these external influences will always be present, there is no way to eliminate all the bad in the world. Also, there will always be people that are just so good it makes you sick. Like they would rather be tortured for years on end then commit a single sin. But I also believe someone can be good and do something bad but then go back to being good as soon as that external influence leaves their life, because, that's what was making them bad to begin with.
