If you wish to assert there is such thing as evil, you must demonstrate it.
However,
for your demonstration to be effective you will have to show that
something is not just bad, but factually evil and that would require it
to be pure evil.
If
you cannot demonstrate these things, the best you can do is argue that
when YOU don't like something YOU call it evil, which has no meaning to
anyone else.
And
so - if you wish there to be evil in the world, either it has to come
from your own desire for something to considered evil or you have to
demonstrate something that is pure evil - that no person could ever deny
it is evil and that nothing good can ever come from it.
The
problem then is that even the worst thing can be used as a bad example
and that fact negates the entire notion of evil - except in the case it
is your desire to call something evil.
