Evil vs. Good

Personally, I don't believe in a clear cut good and evil. Good people can always do bad things, or the other way around. For example, our soldiers in Iraq. They're good people right? They risk their lives to protect our country. But occasionally they have to kill people. It doesn't matter if the people they're killing should die, killing someone is still evil. So if there was just a clear good and evil, wouldn't that make our brave, loyal soldiers evil? Yeah, that's what I thought. This is also an example of good trying to conquer evil, which will never happen. There still are some purely evil people out in the world, and unfortunately, they convince good people into bad decisions. And the other way around, some purely good people can convince bad people to make better decisions. Good will never conquer evil and evil will never conquer good. This is one of those things that evens out the world and makes it go round. Even though neither will completely take over, evil decisions do have the majority. It seems like every day people start to make more and more bad decisions. These bad decisions don't make the people evil, but affect others. They create a chain reaction of bad decisions through others. The same thing happens with acts of kindness but not as often which is why I say that evil "beats" good, bt that doesn't mean either will disappear forever.
