Evil and heavenly, good and bad...they don't exist. It's a perception that society created. I honestly try not to question things and to me this is one. Things happen and are the way they are whether it affects you personally in a negative or positive way is up to you.
I agree that parents should be able to abort a child who could be mentally or physically handicapped if they do not want to provide for all the needs the whole life of the individual. I don't think they should have to abort it if they are willing and able to provide everything. This depends on the severity of the mental disability as well.

It has to make someone feel bad to be evil and it has to make no one feel good, while making someone feel bad, to be pure evil.
So sadism can never be evil?
It can be evil(not always). But it can never be pure/true evil.
I am much more interested in finding a way to be true/pure evil.
Pure evil has no purpose or understanding, it can't be reasoned with. It does no good to no one.
Evil is intentionally creating pain and suffering in someone of worth.
This means...
1. Hurting animals who have little worth is not evil. There is a certain limit to this evil. If there is intentional harm induced for the mere pleasure of inflicting harm then it is evil. In the case that the harm is inflicted to protect a human, who is of greater worth then it is acceptable. It is acceptable in the case where the animal must die to provide food and clothing for a human, who is of greater worth.
2. Hurting someone who is worthless such as Hitler is not evil. This is because it is removing someone who commits too much evil from the world. This is because he has lost the trust of humankind. This makes it so he must be inflicted harm to protect someone of greater worth, someone who did not inflict so much evil.
In some cases though, it is evil to pursue the destruction of evil especially when evil can be objective. It is objective because some people do not consider certain acts as pain inducing while others may. This happens a lot in religion and politics.
1. Religion
Imagine this... There is a religion that thinks another religion is evil because they tend to allow polygamy. The religious considers the other religious barbarians. Then they go out and kill the individuals from the polygamous religion in the pursuit of total morality in their own objective perspective. The polygamous country does not think it is evil because most of those in their religion as long as they are not forced into it do not feel harmed. In this case then it is not evil to be polygamous it is evil to try to eradicate those who partake in the lifestyle. The religion that thinks they are so high moral is the one inducing evil acts of intentional harm. The only evil the polygamous committed is disturbing the minds of the high moral religion.
Summary:
It is evil to do harm on purpose to someone of enough worth.
In the moment of an individual or animal of little worth there can be intentional harm if it is for the greater good of those with greater worth.
The pursuit to eradicate evil can be evil in of it's own because evil can be objective.
They totes have that choice to abort or not.
Though they mean well and and want to support and care for the child, at some point having thought that out what happens when they are no longer able to care for the person? If they were to die suddenly? And the child would struggle so much and might even become a burden to someone else or even a victim of abuse or homelessness. And das why I think of it like that. So Evil is a relative term and my example isnt even really in that field, its not even evil, just very cruel and selfish. There are kids for adoption ya know.
The concept of sadism is easy to view as evil because of the nature of it. People that take advantage of other people for the sole reason that they can, are the worst type of common person, and I wouldn't hesitate to call them evil. Also thieves are usually more evil than they think they are.
