Do you think you're a good person?

I'm definitely a good person, ask anyone who knows me, they will tell you in exact detail.

I was always wanted to be pure, unaldulterated evil to experience what that felt like. Good and bad are relative terms, most suicide bombers likely consider themselves to be good for giving their all to their cause. The victim's family I am certain don't. I aim to be courageous and sincere.

I think a good person is someone who doesn't intentionally hurt, deceive, or disrespect others. By that definition, I am mostly a good person.

Sometimes it annoys me when people try to generalize, are you a good person? what level are we expected to attain, or what things to be done,to attain goodness? I believe we humans are born genuinely good. I am kind of mad so maybe this is an offshoot of that.
Goodness=honesty,loyalty,truth in all areas in my opinion.So yes I suppose I am a good person.

i think i am a good person, and i think therefor i am

I don't really believe anyone is either good or bad. I think sometimes people just have good intentions and sometimes they don't. Sometimes they do good things and sometimes they don't. Sometimes they're aware that they're being bad and sometimes they're not. That said, here's how I rate people's overall goodness:

1. People with good intentions + good deeds + unawareness of being a goody-goody
2. People with good intentions + good deeds + awareness of being a goody-goody
3. People with good intentions + bad deeds + unawareness that they're doing it all wrong
4. People with good intentions + bad deeds + awareness that they're doing it all wrong
5. People with bad intentions + bad deeds + unawareness that they're doing it all wrong
6. People with bad intentions + bad deeds + awareness that they're doing it all wrong

I've met way too many #6s (aka scum of the earth), but as of today no #1 yet. As for me, I alternate between #2 and #4. (And for the record, I'd peg Hitler as a mostly #3. I know every other person in the world thinks he was pure evil, but I'm not convinced.)

Yeah, I think I'm a good person. Especially because everyone is always telling me "You're such a good person!"

I'm not sure if I'm a good person or not. My family & some others who know me think I'm extremely selfish, lazy, demanding & that I am incapable of caring about anyone but myself. Some even think that I'm a potential serial killer I try to be a good person because I care very deeply but I feel like I must be an extremely selfish person because I am nothing but a burden to my family & the American tax payer. I don't want to be like my parents & others think I do but I find the more I try not to be; the worse things get & I end up causing more problems & more expenses. If If I truly was a good unselfish person; I would of killed myself a long time ago because my continuing existence is making things worse & not better.

I think a good person is someone who tries to help others or better things for others instead of taking advantage of em or screwing em over.

I know people who are good but they all have their faults but they try

I think I'm somewhere in between good and bad. I'm no Mother Teresa, but I'm not exactly Satan's no.1 squeeze either (as much as I want to be )

Mostly, yeah.

I thought this was going to be a Way of the Master thread, but I was wrong.

Everyone has lied, cheated, stolen, had lust in their heart and been angry enough to murder. No one is good. Everyone will go to hell, unless they ask Jesus for forgiveness. That's the gist of the Way of the Master. they always start out their witnessing with the question: "do you think you are a good person?" Google it for more info. I'm new, so I 'm still not allowed to post links.

More later. Good night.

I believe I am, but not a lot of people think so.
