I'm pretty good actually. But you never see me in the media. :)
I'm sure your are. Everyone thinks they're "good" but there are certainly "bad" people.
I'm not sure they do. Some people are bad and they know they are but they just don't agree that the definition of good matters.
A lot of this stuff is probably grounded in if you believe your actions has any spiritual meaning or not. For a lot of people, it seems that if there is no reward for being good, then why make the effort. Because for them, it's an effort. For others, it's just how they are.
You're describing evil.
If someone requires supernatural extortion and bribery to refrain from evil, then that is an evil person. Even if the bribery and extortion works.
Yes, that's what I meant. Good people are naturally good and don't think about rewards for being nice.
