I was reading an old text book and reread some of the work of Plato. It was his discussion, with Thrasymachus, about justice. I believe his overall assumptions. So I believe that, most of the time, justice is made up.
I also believe in God. My "style" of belief forces me to believe in the powers of both Mercy and Justice. But, I believe that goodness can be objective. I can only think of one thing that is inherently evil. - Intention -
The purpose of this thread is to gather ideas about what is Good and what is Bad. Please try to be as objective as possible. That means, to remove as much of yourself as possible from your description. For example, I cannot say the action of punching someone is all bad. It would be wrong for me to punch someone. But, only because it's me and my life doesn't need violence. But, if someone is innocent and defending themselves, it could be argued that, they are "justified.
Please list ideas or actions and define them as good or evil. Give evidence for your claim.
