C hates the world and doesn't want his family to have to live in it anymore, so he lights his house on fire burning himself and his family. D loves people, so he goes out and helps the poor, and tries to heal whatever enmity he might have had with others. Does this sound like a plausible scenario? If so, what weighed more on their actions? The basic thing they believed or their personalities?
A- A good person who did a bad thing.
B- A good person who did a good thing.
C- A bad person who did a bad thing.
D- A good person who did a good thing.
Notice anything, so, you tell me...what weighed more on their actions?
Why is A necessarily a better person than C?
