Damfectionist wrote: You don't have to kill people or rob banks to be evil. Evil is defined as being "profoundly immoral and malevolent". That explains Heather and Alejandro to a T. It could be said that even Angelica Pickles is an evil character.

Courtney did not bully Beth or Lindsay in TDA. In fact, Courtney often congradulated them for their efforts. This is especially noticable in Get A Clue! When Courtney pats Lindsay on the back as if to say "Sorry, nice try though!". She was even smiling in a friendly manner when she does this. There is no evidence that Heather consoled Courtney out of the kindness of her own heart. This was never once mention by either of the two girls and it makes better since for Heather to get Courtney to calm her nerves down because she needed Courtney in her pocket at the time. It's ironic that you point out that Alejandro has a soft spot for Heather when you apparently ignore that Courtney has a soft spot for Duncan, particuarly in the seaosn that shes infamous on--TDA.

What evidence do you have to show that Courtney knew that serving the interns the spoiled ice cream was wrong of her to do? She mentioned in a confessional that she was aware that the interns where already used to eating such slop anyway, and Chris never once stepped in during the challenge and called it off. Chris, as a host, should have told Courtney to skip the ingredients but he never did. What was Courtney supposed to do? This is not Courtney's fault because all she did was follow the rules that were assigned to her.

Harrassment is considered profoundly immoral and malevolent, which is the definition of evil. Also throwing someone off a volcano is pretty evil to me. She didn't have to throw Alejandro off, she just needed his puppet. So what if Alejandro did it to further himself in the game? It doesn't change the fact that Alejandro did evil things. Throwing challenges, however, is not evil. Selfish? perhaps, but not immoral.

What evidence do you have that Courtney WASN'T using her instincts? She ran away cowardly when Jo almost shot her, she had a legitamate look of terror in her eyes...sounds like she was instinctive to me!

I disagree. She apologized to Gwen and was even willing to vote for herself off to satisfy her, which is probably what she did anyway. It just makes sense that Zoey and Gwen voted for Scott while the rest, including Courtney, voted for Courtney.

Just as you pointed out evil is immoral and malevolent. That doesn't fit them to a T because they have plenty of redeeming qualities and have been shown to have a heart.

Courtney constantly bossed, insulted and tried to manipulate Beth and Lindsay into alliances. Courtney was obviously smiling at Lindsay in a condescending manner. I'm sorry but anyone passed the age of 8 should know that. Why would Heather need Courtney in her pocket if Courtney already hated Gwen? Courtney constantly humiliated and manipulated Duncan's feelings for her to win challenges. Soft side my butt.

"What evidence do you have to show that Courtney knew that serving the interns the spoiled ice cream was wrong of her to do?"

You're joking, right? I shouldn't have to be arguing about things like this? This isn't even reaching. This is literally twisting facts and making Courtney look like a retard to make your argument valid.

Bullying/harassing someone is a jerk thing to do, not evil. Duncan's a Anti-Hero and he's a bully. That's not crossing the Moral Event Horizon line. She didn't even throw him, she pushed him off of it. Al received no injuries.

"So what if Alejandro did it to further himself in the game? It doesn't change the fact that Alejandro did evil things."

Now you're being a hypocrite. You talk about Courtney not being evil because what she does is out of her competitive drive but when Alejandro does something out of his you call him evil. Whether you consider Courtney throwing challenges to be evil or selfish is subjective. It's still something wrong that Courtney didn't show any remorse.

"I disagree. She apologized to Gwen and was even willing to vote for herself off to satisfy her, which is probably what she did anyway. It just makes sense that Zoey and Gwen voted for Scott while the rest, including Courtney, voted for Courtney."

We've already gone over this several times. You clearly won't admit to Courtney's faults so I'm going to stop now.
