I think the way we can view sin is very dependent on the absoluteness of our point of view. From the viewpoint of omniscience and omnipotence where you are dealing only in absolutes you might consider good and evil equally valid choices.

Sadly, such a viewpoint is meaningless for us who have to live our everyday lives. As long as we accept sin as something that just "goes with the territory" of being human we will never eliminate suffering. So the continued fight against sin and evil remains a worthwhile, even essential, pursuit. We may never be able to, yet we must always act as though we can abolish sin altogether.
