: why my arguments always refer to Bungie's Myth, and
: not MJ's Myth, Seabolt's Myth etc.

Actually, GURPS does suggest quite strongly that the Ghols and Mauls aren't actually evil (however we may define that term), but are instead savage, misunderstood creatures who can't find allies anywhere but in the Dark.

As for the idea that good can be defined as the destruction of evil, that's rather a dangerous view to take, overall. Hitler thought the Jews and Communists were evil, and we all know how that ended up, don't we?
