I agree with the logic of your post. But I think in context pinky could be substitued for fevered. "Wonderland fortunately exists only in your pinky liberal imagination." ;-)

If I inadvertently place my hand on a hot stove and quickly withdraw it, you may wish to call that behavior "purple". I call it "instinct". Calling it instinct is simply saying you do it for some reason which you cannot fully describe, yet which is beneficial in this case. Get a modern college biology textbook and read the description of instinct. It will say what I say it is, a word that covers our ignorance. The use of good and evil for explanatory reasons for human actions are similar to the use of instinct when referring to animal behavior: OK for placing a label that most people feel comfortable with, but totally useless if you want to understand the causal reasons.
