I've spoken about this before, and I will again. From my studies and experiences, I've theorized that there are 4 aspects of fighting evil, and there are even other ways to interpret this in your own ways, but here are some of my ways of viewing it. And I will share them with you.
The Fire Aspect- This one is obvious. Just think of the term used time and time again. "Fighting fire with fire." That's what this one is. Vengeance. The advantage of it lies in how effective of a tactic it is at scaring evil. The disadvantage is overkill, taking things too far, when sometimes the punishment may not seem to fit the crime.
The Earth Aspect- This one makes me think of a fair, balanced version of fighting evil. Reaping what you sew. Since this planet Earth consists of all 4 aspects, any of the other 3 aspects can be applied where necessary. Justice. The advantage is that it's actions are equal to the evil it's attempting to fight, destroy, punish, or teach a lesson to. Not too much as to be considered unfair, yet not too little as to be considered weak and afraid to fight back. This one I feel most in line with, because I understand and accept all of the aspects, but agree with this ideal the most.
The Water Aspect- To fight hatred with love, cruelty with kindness. It's advantage comes with the times it's able to make an evildoer see the error of their own ways by comparison to the seemingly undeserved respect you show towards them. As in, if you want an evil person to be good, then first show them what good is. The disadvantage is for the times it can be viewed upon as a weakness.
The Air Aspect- This one I can interpret in a few ways. The first way I thought of it, a while back, was ignoring evil. It's advantage is against the type of evil that thrives off the attention it's given. Ignoring those types of evil people make them lose the motivation to do evil. Another way I had interpreted it had to do with a combination of knowledge and indirectly fighting evil. Such as being a strategist or someone in a support role who may not necessarily fight evil themself, but yet in a sense indirectly does by offering some type of advice or useful resource to help the other person fight evil. Praying could perhaps be considered this as well, yet supplemented with the intentions of any of the other 3 aspects.
Each of those 4 represent common tactics you see with Police, when interrogating people. The Good Cop (Water), The Bad Cop (Fire), That one Cop who is serious, can be friendly but also firm and strict (Earth), then there's that one quiet Cop that you don't know what they're thinking (Air).
One mistake I see certain Warriors make is denying the importance of aspects other than their own, rather than learning to balance out those other ones.
There are also mixtures of these elements as well, such as Lava, Ice, Mud, Smoke.

Introduction to my Blog
Hello,
Welcome to my blog. What to expect from me? I'd like to say expect the unexpected and that's true in many ways, but I like to post about my philosophies and random thoughts about all kinds of things.
Who I am? I'm Tothian. What goes on in my mind is so complex, and yet at the same time so simple, that few if any people ever actually come close to understanding me, nor the way I am, nor the things I do.
I guess you could say I kind of this wild badboy side about me. I can't help it and I can't deny who I am. Nobody is perfect, but it's better to at least be honest about that instead of trying to pretend to be perfect. That doesn't mean I don't try to do good in my own ways though. But I'm a free spirit. I don't conform to the standards created by others. I know who I am and who I always have been and what I was meant to do. People may choose to look at me from different angles at different times, but I've always been the same person.
I've said this many times in my life, and I know this will sound crazy but I don't care, I have nothing to prove by saying this, nothing to gain, but I have always known from as far back in life as I can remember that God asked me to come to Earth, saying I was needed here in this world, to protect people and fight evil. But it goes much deeper than just that. To help certain people that God helps guide me to them, or them to me, and/or both. To show people my ways of thinking, as even though people might not always agree with me, although a lot of the times they do too, there's always something to be learned from the things I say. But sometimes I just like having fun, and making things fun for others as well. Finding creative ways to make the world fun for yourself and for others is what gives people that passion for living, that extra reason for wanting to wake up in the morning or whenever they wake up, but you get the point.
I'm a Marine. Not in anymore, but you know the saying: Once a Marine, always a Marine. I'm also an ordained Reverend. I consider my religion to be Jedi Christian. I like reading about things like Philosophy, Criminology, Sherlock Holmes, Foreign Languages, Pirates, Presidential History, Politics, Time Travel, Superheroes, Star Wars, Warrior Codes, Tactics, and most importantly, the Holy Bible.
I also love music. All kinds, but mainly I prefer relaxing music like sappy love songs or classical music. I used to play guitar when I was younger, and on and off over the years. Just tunes and stuff. I also like to sing and never got really good at that, but I love practicing it anyway.
Ok, that's all, for now...
YAHHHHHHHH!!!!
