I kind of think ti should die and stay buried, frankly.
questions of good and evil are entirely subjective and very close to TT; I have been gritting my teeth on this one for the last two pages.

No it is entirely objective. There is an absolute standard. Everything that harms me is evil ;D
Paynesgrey:
"Good and evil" aren't necessarily Touchy Topics, but when they get into things like government things definitely go pear-shaped. They're topics which easily tray into Touchy Topics in other areas as well. They're topics where we must be very, very careful to stay on-task and watch what examples we use, because even things like self-defense, justifiable force, individual sovereignty can stray into TT or religious areas. So there's no ban on "Good/Evil", but we've all got to watch our examples and our tempers.

Indeed it is a tightrope because the whole series itself is a battle of good and evil with lots of grey in-between.. So it is very hard not to touch touchy topics, because that is the nature of the series.
Paynesgrey:
Yuppers. That's why we don't want to nix threads like this, just make sure they stay clear of the real-world religious and sociopolitical topics. It's the type of issue that brings out the value-judgments in droves, but it's what the books are about pretty much.
