      What God says is evil in the Bible is not in actuality evil, especially considering that the God of the Bible is evil.

      So is evil defined by intention? Gay penguins aren’t evil because they aren’t choosing to be gay?

        Evil is defined by God (in Bible).

        So… being gay is evil, being disobedient to parents is evil, being Hindi is evil, and so on.

        It’s pretty detached from “evil” as it is known today (or then for that matter).
