Abstract

In this article, I review evidence indicating that good and evil are in the eye of the beholder. In addition, I argue that taking this stance makes one vulnerable to criticism. This argument is consistent with Roy Baumeister’s declaration that good and evil are “not strongly tethered to objective reality.”
