Also justification of violence against another varies widely from culture to culture, locale to locale, time to time. So I guess your point is evil can't be defined with more information about who, when, where and why.

I think it can be defined better.
Funny...when I think of evil I see more of pictures in my mind that are hard to put into words for me...Like the man who kidnapped a girl when she was 14 and had her living in a shack behind his house, raped her regularly, she bore him 2 illegitimate children there in that shack, etc...In my gut i just feel that's evil...BUT like I said I can't really put it into words...If you can define it better, please help me out

And it isn't only that evil can't be defined it was also a point of my idea of evil might not be yours..
