I think if someone is asking such a question, it means he is up to something, and that means the act is probably evil.

I'd call the previous post an accidentally evil act, but still an evil act. I wouldn't always blame someone for doing evil by accident on a rare occassion, but that's not an excuse for not investigating a matter either. Most of the time if you investigate you find out. So usually intentions and actions are not seperate, though sometimes they can be. Regularly commiting evil acts unknowingly is still being evil, just with a lame and pitiful excuse. Taken to the extreme I've seen people who were rather selectively ignorant, but it doesn't need to go that far to be bad.

The unexamined life is not worth living.
