If anyone thinks of themselves as a good person, take the, "Let's see if your a good person." test.

10 out of 10 people statisticly die in their lifetime.

It is pointless to take the test. You are as others see you, regardless of what YOU think.

I remember that test. 51% of the test takers were good people, the rest voted for Kerry.

I am not a good person. I don't say it with pride either. I would rather "live" in a book, movie or computer game and interaction with my fellow human beings tends to frustrate me.

I guess I subscribe to that saying, "We have sinned in what we have done, and what we have failed to do."

For me to be a good person I would need to be much more active in the world, helping those in need.

Knowledge is sorrow; they who know the most
Must mourn the deepest o'er the fatal truth,
The Tree of Knowledge is not that of Life.

In my opinion, good and evil are equivalent perspectives of behavioral outcomes influenced by long-term commitments -- rarely measurable within single lifetimes. That's why my heros are seldom human and my protagonists span centuries -- so they can find out how it all turned out in the end that is the beginning. For example, I like saving children from abusive parents -- it's part of my day job. But that doesn't necessarily make me a good person. My odds of being good, if such is a goal, are increased if I make long-term commitments to the children so that they don't grow up to become rapists and abusers themselves. Of course, I can't -- there's way too many maltreated children in this world to actually save.

So, I wrote a novel instead and will donate a portion of the profits, if any, to prevent child abuse. Am I a good person? It all depends on outcome and not on temporal intention. And, my self-measured "grade" at death will depend on feedback instead of self-analysis or self-concept. "Rarity from the Hollow" ( www.fatcatpress.com) just got a good review by an experienced critic:

"...the subject matter is dark and strong, unflinching in its portrayal of human darkness, and not for the faint-hearted or easily offended. Robert Eggleton is not afraid of employing complex style and structure to fit the needs of his story. The mixture of sci-fi, gritty reality, humour, and the mode of thriller reminds me a great deal of Dean Koontz’s writing, and Robert Eggleton may indeed have the potential to follow in Dean Koontz’s footsteps.”

It doesn't make me a good person.

Dude, 30-odd posts (degenerating into grenade slinging madness, I might add) and you've just now come back with question one? Gorrammit, put the whole thing up, or we're gonna be here for 50 years.
And if telling a lie is the basis of a "good person" test, I can assure you right now that every self-respecting Browncoat in the 'verse is gonna fail it, Hero included ('cause I can't see any decent Browncoat not sticking a lie to 'the man' every now and again).

'Evil;' it's just a word
Of which you have probably heard.
Then there's the word, 'good,'
Often mixed up with 'should,'
And whose meaning is totally blurred.
