Good and evil are judgment calls people make about the actions we observe.What are good and evil? Please supply proof. Thanks.
If *good* and *evil*were just words we could simply dismiss their existence. But they are not just words. Whatever brings a benefit (material, physical, emotional, or spiritual) to another is good, whereas whatever brings harm to another is evil. Another way to look at this is to see that whatever comes from God is good, whereas whatever comes from Satan is evil.They are words. They have the meaning that people ascribe to them, as it is with all words.

No, as long as there are actions, there will always be words to describe them. The only way good and evil will be dismissed is if other words are used to replace themIf *good* and *evil*were just words we could simply dismiss their existence.

The requirements of proof are the goalposts I mean. How would you know that I had succeeded?

I didn´t say you did. I said you were challenging your fellow moral objectivists to prove it.To my knowledge I've never said you can prove what good and evil are. I've talked about reasonable belief but I never said anything was proven.
