What makes a Good person?
#25
RE: What makes a Good person?
Back to the OP.

What makes a good person?

For me it is simply a person who, no matter what their goals, will not disadvantage others to reach them, but it's not as simple as Good VS Bad, i think the ying yang is a prolific example, it's about the balance between Good and Bad deeds - If someone has done both good and bad then it ultimately must be weighed, someone who has done more good than bad (not in terms of number of actions but their impact) would still be considered by me as a Good person, though not absolutely good but relatively good and vice verse.

I think the association between Peace and War is going to help explain my idea more effectively, in the sense that Peace is simply not war (ie peace does not require charity), Good is simply Not Bad.
