About the Theme: The opposite of evil

Although sometimes it seems that evil is omnipresent, that its roots are metaphysical, the fact is that it is not ontological: evil does not exist in the interstellar space of the cosmos, nor in the quantum forces of the microcosm.

Evil's opposition, which we capture with many deeply impactful names, is incapable of providing adequate counterbalance to the almost palpable force that the word evil exerts. Evil, together with its opposition, is present only in the world of man, and only man gives them to the world that surrounds him.

From the beginnings of philosophy, as well as religion, the problem of evil, as well as the answer, the opposition to evil, finding values ​​that stand against it, exist as one of the most important problems for human life.

The third Pharos Philosophy Symposium will be devoted to the discussion of resistance to evil. We seek historical and contemporary answers to the problem of evil to be presented in an open and tolerant discussion, not forgetting that people recognize it in many manifestations of human existence, but placing emphasis on the values ​​and guideposts to which man gives a strong and motivating response to evil - on the human attitude against evil.

As the motto of our third symposium, we take Hektorović's stone inscription above the toilet in his Tvrdalj Castle:

 

SI TE NOSTI CUR SUPERBIS

"If you know thyself, why be haughty?"
