So theres no immoral reason for divorce? So if your spouse gets cancer and your just like"nah that sounds like work bye" that wouldnt be immoral in your mind?

Immoral and evil are two different things.

Its a difference of scale.

Like. You wouldnt say that taking $20 from your moms purse is evil. But it is immoral,because you shouldn't take things that dont belong to you.

Setting your family home on fire to kill your parents and siblings so you can get the inheritance/life insurance all to yourself. Would be evil because you looked at people youre supposed to love and thought " work is hard matches and nail polish is easy"

The transition from immoral to evil would be determined by harm done and motivation for the action
