I am curious as to what you think is an evil thing to do and what is a good thing to do. It can just be words does not have to be a long answer. You could just do a list of good and evil and that would be okay.
I don't believe in actual good and evil
No such thing as good. It's never a selfless act so if you're helping someone out and you're like a good Christian and you get satisfaction from helping someone out, that is such a selfish act. Everything is eeeevil.
If you help someone and they feel good about it and you feel good about it, how is that evil just because it's not a "selfless act"?
Every act has ulterior motives, even if it is subconsciously
I don't think it's evil, I just wanted to point out it isn't "good" either

I do believe in a good and an evil, I am not sure if there's a universal and absolute definition to each but I think it's highly relative to one's own value system and ethical code.
There are many things I see as evil; for example, abusing children. I personally find that children's innocence should not be touched or taken away from them in any fashion. Also, honor killings, crimes of passion, etc. I find them to be very evil. Hurting others or subjecting people to pain, because one can (aka power abuse) is on the top of my list.
The acts I consider as good fall under helping others; protecting the helpless, ending poverty, advancing and improving human life, aiding someone reach their potential, caring for family members, saying kind words or showing support or understanding, smiling, returning the favors back or paying it forward. Doing good because one can is on the top of this list too.
Of course, you always get situations where the line between the two is fuzzy and you can't tell whether one action falls under good or evil, and I think that's where the (somewhat inevitable) grey area comes in.
