Pip to show the readers about moral maturation,
how people change, and to warn them about money,
love, and what really matters. In Dickens novel,
Great Expectations, the main character Pip

Problem Of Evil Doesn T
1,299 words
I do not believe that evil as we typically
understand it exists in the world. I believe that

must come into the space. In other words, in this
relative existence, hot cannot be hot without
cold, tall cannot be tall without short, and you
cannot be yo...
