Eve Garrard's Argument That Evil Is A Degree Of Wrong
I will know defend the claim that evil is a degree of wrong, as well as how it isn’t qualitatively distinct. Eve Garrard argues that evil is the intent to create harm as well as how silence plays a role in this. However, philosopher Luke Russell, discusses how, “Garrard, refuses to modify her account by adding the condition that evil actions must be harmful” (). Russell later states that extreme harm doesn’t have to be a contributor of evil. In a sense, it has been there but it not always is. This supports my initial argument since it can be compared to how evil is an extent of wrong, as well as how a harm does not need to be a contributor of wrong. An example of this can be seen in certain religious groups, such as the Ancient Civilizations
