I mean, what does experience have to do with evil? Especially with anything involving sex, drugs, or any other forms of pleasure, how does hedonism equate with evil? Seems to me that evil is more what one does to others, carelessly hurting other people, that's the nature of evil. And sure, quizzes like this are frivolous at best, so I shouldn't read too much into it. Then again, maybe it's the mood I'm in now.

I am 37% evil.




I could go either way. I have sinned quite a bit but I still have a bit of room for error. My life is a tug of war between good and evil.


Are you evil? find out at Hilowitz.com

That seems to be the general view of Christian's view of evil. Mostly, though, hedonism is viewed as evil when it is pleasure pursued at the expense of doing things that will lead to greater pleasure down the road (and I don't mean heaven), or prevent great suffering down the road. For instance, spending large amounts of money on "fun" things today instead of saving up, and then not having enough to support oneself later in life, and thus becoming a burden on the next generation.

Christians have a great deal of fun; trust me on that one. They have no end of singing and dancing and eating and drinking and joking around. The good ones, though, are keeping an eye toward getting the work done. (As for the morons - well, there's morons all over the place, and they're hardly worth talking about for these purposes.)
