Evil is generally accepted to be defined as the intention of causing harm or destruction while threatening or deliberately violating morality. Largely due to the subjectivity of the word morality (which may refer to a society's moral code, one's own moral system, relative morality, absolute morality, etc.), there is no agreement about whether evil is a matter of social custom or universally correct principle that overrides custom. Evil, however, is most commonly used to refer to any intention that is socially perceived as the antithesis of a morally right or good intention.

The notion of evil is particularly explored in religion, social philosophy, and the narrative arts (e.g. literature). The word evil is most specifically contrasted with good. In some religions, evil is an active force, often personified as an entity such as Satan or Angra Mainyu.

How did God create evil if he has nothing of evil in him?Why would you create evil if you are good?
Q. Isaiah 47:7 7I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the LORD do all these things. If God cannot do evil how did he create evil? If God is pure and good why create evil? Why create evil? Can't we all live in free will in paradise or heaven then why create evil?

A. God created persons (both spirit and human) with the quality of free will. Many have misused that quality of freedom of choice and brought evil into existence. It can be illustrated like this: A father and mother work hard to raise their children in the best way possible--instilling morals and ethics into them. Most of the children turn out well but one of them becomes a criminal--doing evil things (thievery, murder, etc). Did the parents create this criminal? No, the child made his own choices and chose this life course for himself. He made himself a criminal, despite his parents best efforts to raise him as a good person.

In religion and ethics, evil refers to the bad aspects of the behaviour and reasoning of human beings—those which are deliberately void of conscience, and show a wanton desire for destruction.
