First and foremost, there is good and evil in the world. There is absolutely no in between. Every action or inaction is either good or evil. I come from the Christian biblical school of thought in regard to the definition of good and evil, which corresponds nicely with Jewish tradition as well. Most of the world’s religions seem to have similar views on good and evil, although framed differently.
Next, there is truth and non-truth, or the truth and the lie, if you prefer. There is really no in between. As human beings, we spend too much of our lives trying fairly successfully to rationalize the “in between” which doesn’t really exist. How many times do we rationalize telling “a little white lie” to keep from hurting someone’s feelings? Therein is just one of the “good intention” pavers on the road to hell. Need I go on to more examples? I think you get it.
Then there are facts, non-facts, and theories, which may or may not be factual. The best and easiest example to demonstrate is scientific facts. Scientific facts are something that can be challenged, but when the results of repeated testing demonstrate the same result over and over again, you can be sure you have a proven fact. The elephant in the room is the THEORY of human caused climate change. Although accepted as fact by many, there has never been repeatable testing of the theory that can demonstrate that humans have any impact whatsoever on global climate. In fact, ice core and tree ring studies have demonstrated that climate change has been a natural cyclic occurrence for tens of thousands of years.
"A lie doesn't become truth, wrong doesn't become right and evil doesn't become good just because it's accepted by a majority"~ Booker T. Washington
Furthermore, we can’t have this discussion without addressing right and wrong. What is right or wrong is based on both biblical standards and as defined by human agreement about civilized standards where societies instituted laws governing proper standards of behavior for their culture, wherein operation within established sideboards is right and operating outside those sideboards is wrong.
The reality in our binary civilized world is this: truth, facts, and doing right is good. Untruth (lying), non-facts, and doing wrong is evil.
Of course there is also the fact that human beings and all mammals, come in only two sexes: male and female A human being born with a two X chromosome is a female and one born with the XY chromosome is a male. That is a binary fact. Any other position on this issue is a lie! Anyone promoting a non-binary position regarding human sexuality is evil.
Last, but certainly not least, the 25th Chapter of Matthew in The Holy Bible tells us that when Jesus comes to conduct his final judgment, he will divide the peoples of the nations. On the right He will place the righteous people (sheep) and on the left the unrighteous evil people (goats).

The righteous will enjoy eternal life while the unrighteous will suffer eternal punishment in hell. This, too, is a binary relationship.
Please don’t let the above reference to left and right escape your attention. In North America the law and order constitutional patriots are on the right of the political spectrum while the lawless/ Marxist/socialists/communists/world domination/anti-constitutionalists cabal is firmly on the left of the political spectrum. It’s binary and biblical!
The evil secular world would have you believe that there are degrees of right and wrong or good and evil. It is a lie! The evil secular world would have you believe that facts are fluid and a matter of opinion. This, too, is a lie. The evil secular world would have you believe that human beings can select their choice of sex or some other variation thereof. That is the greatest lie of all! Believe your own eyes and ears. Always seek the truth and your life will be on the right track. Only rely on sources you know, for absolute certain, are telling you the truth. Otherwise, question everything.
Know God, know good. No God, know evil.

After a 55 year career as a professional pilot in the military, in law enforcement, in the private sector, and in federal civil service, I am now retired.
In many of these positions I repeatedly took an oath to defend the United States Constitution against all enemies foreign and domestic.
