People think that evil is wrong and good is right.
Is this what ALL people ACTUALLY think? Or, is this just what you think is true?
Yes. For example, think of Christian.
ONCE AGAIN, I give you a choice out of two options and which one is right to you, but you respond with a "Yes", response. Which is OBVIOUSLY totally nonsensical.

I am making the distinctions between these and I think that that is useful.
WHERE, and HOW, EXACTLY are you, supposedly and allegedly, making the distinctions between the two? (Especially considering what you wrote below here, in this post).
And, you think that making the distinction is 'useful' for 'what', EXACTLY?

Evil can be right and good can be wrong depending on the situation.
Will you provide some examples of these? On first glance I can NOT think of ANY situation where this could be true.
Suppose that you have a son and he breaks the glass of windows. This is wrong.
This is NOT necessarily wrong AT ALL.

You of course are not going by a good approach, confirming his action and giving him pleasure. Instead, you question his action which is evil (that makes him feel mental suffering). So here we are dealing with a situation that good is wrong and evil is right.
YOUR PRESUMPTION about what I would "of course" do is ABSURD, in the least, so the rest is moot.
Again, you are just here writing ANY old nonsense. This is because you are just 'trying to' back up and justify your current BELIEFS.

And the definitions you gave above here, in this thread, are purpose dependent on WHAT, EXACTLY?
I am going to post a new thread about morality so I need these definitions beforehand.
So, what happens if someone does not read this thread?
I give the reference to this thread from another thread.

How are the 'purpose dependent definitions' here, in this thread, going to be related to the thread, which is 'purpose dependent' upon this thread?
You need the definition of the word you use in an argument. So here you go.

Of course, I am not always thinking that evil is bad.

Try pretending that Age’s statements are correct. It becomes a matter of a what-if exercise. Then you and Age may be able to advance the topic together.

Oh, thanks. I always try my best to do that. I don't understand why age stopped.
