The true morals of Good and Evil

Good and evil is seen many times in book, television shows, video games, stage plays, movies, you name it, it has them. Many things people tend to believe good and evil are is that good is a side of justice, love and the embodiment of peace and caring. Then they see evil as destruction, pure malevolence, always trying to berate good in any way thinkable.
Good and evil are always conflicting and never seem to win over the other. What if I told you, there is no such thing as good and evil? Would you call me a liar? Would you shrug it off? or would you argue with me and tell me I'm wrong? There is no absolute good or evil. It is only how we as individuals perceive one and the other. Good can be seen as evil, and evil can be seen as good. This is easily seen in the Holy Bible. The king of all Christians, the lord and savior of all of Christian faith, Jesus Christ is perceived as the single embodiment of all that is good. Then, his immortal enemy, Satan is seen as the embodiment of all things that are not Jesus. Yet, to others, Satan can be seen as a lord and savior. Satanism, is what I ultimately can say is the direct opposite of Christianity.
As for religion, it always seems that every religion tends to think of itself as right, with anything else, as wrong. Like Nazi Germany, the terrorists we're at war with, and even a rising Christian militia group in our country. There is one thing in common with all of them. They hate Judaism. They perceive it as evil, a lesser religion, something that corrupts humans, something that is eternally wrong. Why? Why must they think that? Judaism gave rise to Christianity and Islam? Why does Christianity and Islam have to make a small percentage of its members hate something that gave birth to that entire religion? Judaism is said to be the world's first monotheistic religion. It does not seem fair that they have to treat such a world-renowned religion unfairly and even despise it.
People can believe what they would like to believe. If a different belief has some bizarre effect on people and makes them say it's wrong or evil, does that give them any right to resort to violence and such foul behavior? Christianity is what I should believe to be well-behaved for a religion. With its ten commandments and seven sins, I do believe any devotee would follow them with their utmost intentions and desire of faith. It just does not make sense to me how religions can bend people's minds into saying they are good and that others are evil, then with the outside world, we could say they are evil and stand for the religions those groups wish to destroy or just snuff them out as they stand.
Good and evil are two different things, they are better known as a single object because one can be neither. One can never be the other without the other being the one. With what I am getting at in this whole explanation of good and evil and their true morals is, that good is not good, and evil is not evil, they don't exist. Good and evil, is what we simply see with our own individual minds.

Again when another dawn breaks,

Yours Truly
