There's your first problem already. Think of all the malignant viruses, tumors, parasites and bacteria you include. Your plan is in need of some rethinking.
I think you are speaking of the impossible. The things you have mentioned are beyond what constitutes logical problem solving in regards to the topic at hand and human potential.
The actual questions is not in terms of actually what ought to or should, could or supposed to happen, it is a hypothetical question in relation to a potential better world. Note the emphasis on hypothetical!!!
So what is my plan then? hang on, I will tell you. I wish to become very wealthy and powerful and take over the world. Just call me the brain and I will call you pinky. In terms of the bigger picture, I am like you I can do nothing. lol. And wish to do nothing, except become rich.
so 'mister ugly creature man' if you wish to debate to merits of common language, and it's application to hypothetical questions, be my guest.......
If I understand you correctly Scotty, and I'm really doing my best here, you leave it at a hypothetical plan to make the world better which essentially means you becoming rich and sitting on your ass. In that case, count me out man, and go fuck yourself hypothetically
Well, you are a very rude, undesirable person arn't you 'ugly animal man'

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.
