Ahh, the age-old battle between the valiant and the dastardly. This seems to be the basis for everyone's moral code. Though the question of good and evil being concrete is one that you could have a seriously lengthy debate over; I firmly believe that there are no such thing.
Depending on what point of view you are coming from, these concepts are entirely subjective. For example, most people would agree on the idea that murder is possibly one of the worst crimes that one could commit and that it could be called the epitome of evil doings. However, this is coming from the point of view of a predominantly Christian culture, or at least one that was founded from Judaeo-Christian ideals. From a different aspect, say, an Odinist, you would be inclined to believe that murder during battle would be the most honorable thing man could accomplish. It just goes to show that perspective really does make a difference, in terms of almost everything.
