Who gets to decide what's good and what's evil? How do you classify?

That which causes the least harm but brings the most joy is typically good.
That which seeks to increase harm is typically evil.

Most things in the world lie somewhere between the extremes. Most actions are close to neutral.

More people attempt to do intentional good than attempt to do intentional evil.

Most people do not intend to cause harm most of the time, and thus most evil is not intentional. Accidental evil tends be far easier to commit than accidental good.

Often we lack the information and context to know the outcome of our actions and are thus unable to predict whether an action might be good or evil. Thus are we at the mercy of history.
