Why is there never (-god) a anicent good that is roaming around slaying and tormenting/purifying evil its all ways some immortal evil form some pit that wont die, yadda yadda yadda. Its never the evil dude must concur all, its the good guy from dirt, always new needs training and barely if never wins, (becasue if he did there would be no old evil in the first place the first second and third guys must have failed). Why is there no Ancient good creature roaming about in the lands of lititure?
Evil=Immortality?
This makes me think of the "Halloween" movies. Apparently, Michael Myers (the guy in the mask with the knife) is the embodiment of pure evil, and evil never dies... it only takes rests. But I suppose for as long as there is evil, there will be good to counter it... an unspoken balance.
Saying something is virtually unbeatable then is beaten by some hero is a typical device used fro drama in a story. And sense the bad guy almost always has to be evil, evil would seem stronger.
Well, I know that this will make me look like a geek but, what about comics? Superman was never beten, neither was Batman, unless u count Frank Miller's DK series lol, they may have seemed like they were beten but always won.
I'm sure Batman has been beaten up more than a few times, after all he's a mortal with tools. But Superman, I know they have made some enemy's that are just as strong and stronger than him so he's been beaten bad too. They have to make some enemy as strong or stronger than him to add the element of drama.
but he is not immortal just invuluable there is a difenct and besides Kytonite Atomic bombs can kill him!
Is there Any IMMORTAL GOOD guy that actual fights
ANYWHERE?

No, evil has to be immortal, if the good guy was immortal - there would be no sequals.

thats a good point. How can you continue a story if the bad guy can die easily?

I love the balance ... and if you believe in reincarnation, then you can assert that if evil only takes rests, good needs to take rest at a higher level.
Evil only reigns at a worldly level, I guess would be my belief.

They were beaten, they died, but they always make their return/revival/reincarnation.
If evil= immortality, how come evil always losses at the end of almost every story?
Evil is always depicted as some imposable to defeat thing but it is always defeated. So doesn't that mean evil != immortality.

Is Evil by necessity Immoral?
Evil strictly speaking is the absence of a good that should be there. Thus, a brick wall may not have eyes, but it does not matter. However if I see a dog without its eyes, then I'd pity the dog because of the blindness it suffers. But is that immoral evil? No because blindness though a physical evil is not immoral.
Evil too rears its ugly head in situations of disaster. When a volcano erupts or a tsunami blows we see a lot of people affected by them. Homes are destroyed, families are torn apart, chaos comes in. But is this immoral per se? No, since no human being wills a tsunami to create havoc or a volcano to blow. These cause natural disasters over which human beings do not have control.
However, when we hear the news of teenagers going to their schools with shotgun in their hands and shooting anyone on sight. Then we see the lack of sense and goodness that should be there. Is killing somebody immoral? Yessiree! Evil there is the lack of respect for the right of another to live.
Your question can be rephrased: Why isn't God doing anything to prevent such things to happen?
Answer: He gave us freedom and he wants us to figure out how to use it.
