Maybe high densities work would apply as they do cause death fear and destruction for the sake increasing polarity but is that really evil from their perspective?
What service did you think that STS entities provided? They simply serve themselves to the exclusion of others. The service provided is to themselves. Indirectly, they provide a certain amount of catalyst for STO beings, in that they provide "opportunities" to help others (because they take what they want and don't care who they hurt in the process). It would appear you have a very different idea of what service to self means.
From their perspective, it would be a subjective matter of whether they thought their actions were "evil" or not. There isn't a universal definition of good or evil. I was merely generalizing when I said most behaviors people consider "good" are STO and most behaviors people consider to be "evil" are STS. But is one's intent to help others, or to help self predominately? I don't understand how "evil" is somehow worse or more judgmental than "absorptive". All we've done is taken one word for selfishness, and replaced it with another.
Clearly, they are going to justify their self serving behavior to themselves, somehow, even if it is just a "I deserve this more than another person because I'm smarter, more elite, etc."
But can you really deny that serving yourself, to the point of others suffering, is not negative or dividing? Because I cannot look myself in the mirror and honestly say that.

I agree, and I don't believe in sin either. Sin also implies you are racking up "bad points" to be later punished for.

Which is why I said there is no wrong.

As for the aversion toward negative conotation it is justified as negative conotion is only implied when not fully seeking to understand. Among the universal love in the Law of One nothing can be described using negative conotation if fully undertood.
I find your definitions awkward as well then, because I have a very different understanding. To me, "negative" is just the opposite charge of "positive". I don't have an emotional charge to that word, or the word "evil" or anything. Really, you can use whatever word you like, but at the end of the day you still just have two oppositely charged behaviors. But if we are to take the words of the Ra material seriously, we have to keep in mind that a sixth density entity (who is beyond polarity) repeatedly used the word "negative" and "separation" to describe the service to self path, so I think that speaks to some significant merit as to their proper usage in describing that path of existence.
Negative and positive are apparent in the illusion. In unity, neither polarity exists.
