Do you think all the "bad" people are in prisons and the "good" folks are outside the prisons?

Do you support the death penalty?

Those that do, you support abortion, right.

Do you believe you're good and the God of the bible not ?

What does God have to do , not do to be good?

Should he not forgive all those behind bars in prison like he's forgiven you?

Very interesting to read your responses.

Anyone who thinks that has IQ of a fly.

Do you support the death penalty?
In some very horrible cases, yes. But I am a supporter of voluntary death penalty, where person has a choice between life in prison or death penalty.


Those that do, you support abortion, right.
I dont support abortion in most cases.


Do you believe you're good and the God of the bible not ?
I dont believe that I am good. Its very difficult to be good.


What does God have to do , not do to be good?
Well, it would be nice if he improved this world a bit, if he feels like it.

Should he not forgive all those behind bars in prison like he's forgiven you?
I mean, he can forgive them if its his will, how would I even stop that? But maybe better strategy would be to improve those people.

Exist

I exist. He does not.

I win. I win against the god of the bible. That was easy cowboy. I am the good one. 
Or look at this. He is the good one for not existing. That way he spares us from all his grreeed.

"Do you believe you are a "good" person?" To some yes, to many no. Good is highly subjective.

There are no "gods". As for people, some of their actions are good and some are not. Some people gravitate more towards good actions and some do less, but no one is always good or always bad. For that matter, "good" and "bad" are subjective concepts.

Do I consider myself good? No, I do not think in such terms. I am a person of a certain polarity who gets along with compatible people and does not get along with incompatible people.

For what it is worth, in my moral system forcing anyone to do anything against their will - except when it is required in order to prevent them from forcing someone else to do something against their will - is unacceptable. So anyone who does not bother me or those around me has nothing to fear from me. Whether it makes me good or not, you decide. :)

You are your own god with your own moral system. That's how that works.

It doesn't matter if I think I am good. I do what I think is right. This just brings us back full circle to good being subjective. Some think the things I do are right and many think the things I do are wrong for what ever but hurt feelings they have about it. My indifference to peoples feelings when it comes to doing what I think is right is mostly what makes me a bad person and good to a few. Good is subjective. Is it good to do what you think is the right thing even it it hurts people emotionally physically or otherwise?

OK then, no I don't think I am a good person. I am indifferent to most everything other than doing what I think is right. This  makes a lot of people not like me so by default makes me a bad person most of the time in their eyes. So again, it doesn't matter if I think I am a good person. I do what I think is right.

No, not at all. I'm just testing the question mark of my keyword.

Yes, you idiot. I'm asking you a question since yours doesn't make any sense.

"Do you think you're a bad person?" Yes, didn't I just say that.  You wanted  a direct answer so I gave you one. And with that said it doesn't matter what I think, its irrelevant. I do what I think is right . Do you have to convince yourself you are a good person while at the same time reconciling your actions?

You ask so many rethorical questions, like this one.

Starting with the fact that the term "God" corresponds to the Religion section of this forum.

No I didn't read where you said directly " I am a person". So I asked.

No, you don't have to convince anything .

So you believe you are a bad person because of yourself or because of others?

It's not a rhetorical question unless I say it is.

You're still not explaining what is not making sense to you. I don't know if you're dodging or really just don't know how to answer the original question or you believe what you said and just evading it .

So take some time, get some thoughts together and answer the original questions directly.

I am going to just repeat what I have been saying,  It doesn't matter if  I think I am good or bad, I do what I think is right. Most people hate that and think I am bad and some like that and think I am good. I don't get to decide if I am good or bad and neither do you. No one does.

Question: If Joe Biden thinks he is a good person and  Donald Trump thinks he is a good person. Does it matter what either of them think? No it doesn't. Because half the people will disagree with both of them.

I don't usually respond to weirdos like you, but I'm going to do an exemption.

The question you're posing is an ethical one. Are we good so far?

Well, you can't bring up the figure of "God" in an ethical argument because it's restricted to religious matters, meaning theology. Ethics is a universal discipline, then "God" is left out.

So, with that in mind, you post doesn't make sense because you're mixing apples and oranges.

Are we good now?

You don't get to decide you say. Let me see if you can answer this question directly. Do you decide on anything  being good or bad or are you unable to compute that judgement as well?

Yes it's weird to communicate and yet you make comments on my posts.

You guys, you got so much yet to learn. It's a pity if you are an elderly person. I hope not. 

So what you had to say was your opinion the way you see it so it don't make sense to you while everyone else gave a half way effort.

But hey, we good on that.
