I don't recall Hayes calling anyone evil; can you find the exact quote? It's quite possible that I just forgot.

Ok well I'm not going to play the entire game again just to find a quote, it's possible I might be remembering it wrong too, but you'd think with all the talk of hating enslavement and wanting to defeat the ur-quan he would have called them evil. Also, what about the Lurg genetically engineering a ship just so it can fight or that they said that the human race means nothing to them?

Well, I didn't find the world evil, guess I just musta thought he implied it. But, we can all agree those blobbies are evil.

I kindof agree with that holistic view too, but it's hard to image that in the game other species wouldn't call other species evil.

We did. You did. Yes we can. No.

The Ilwrath insisted that they were evil... only the Chmmr seemed all that reticent to label people evil.

The Ilwrath could merely be acknowledging that relative to outside species that they are considered evil.
Do you really consider yourselves Evil? Ha! Evil! Of Course We're Evil! Dogar And Kazon Would Never Reward A Less-Than-Hideously Evil Species With Their Baleful Grace. Why We Are The Very Definition Of Evil! Everything About Us, Within And Without, Reeks Of Heinous Deeds, Deceit And Treachery! Even Our House Pets Are Rather Evil.
But `evil' is that which is morally bad or wrong. And if your actions are judged by your society as correct, aren't you, in fact, good? Hmmm... We ARE All Evil. We All Behave In A Mutually Agreed-Upon Fashion Of Murder, Torture, Deceit And So Forth. Our Uniform Acceptance Of This Heinous Credo Creates An Orderly And Cooperative Society Which Hardly Seems Evil. Evil Is Doing Things That Make Others Hurt Or Fear. We ALL Do That, Of Course. But Since We ALL Do Such Things, As Sanctioned By Our Culture, It Would Be `Bad' To Do Otherwise. Which Means... Er... Puny Hu-Man, Do Not Play With Words! You Anger Both Dogar And Kazon! Now You Must Die!

Other species could have different definitions of evil. With the Ilwrath, evil doesn't seem to be so much as we label it, for them its just a way of living, and thye obviously know that other species don't agree with that way of living.

Moreover, Hayes suggested that they might be one of the races it would be easiest to ally with!
