Defining evil sounds very like what my next popst was going to be about, would you be awfully offended if I didn't reply to it now, but waited for that? (In summary I'd like to, but didn't succeed.)
OTOH, Person A would drop litter. Person B wouldn't. Sometimes they've a different perception of how much that affects society, but I think a lot of the time B cares and A doesn't.
*That's* the distinction I want to make. Both might agree litter was slightly evil, but they demonstatably disagree about how evil it is in terms of what they *do*.
