Eudaimon by Aristotle. Though, he himself suggests that truly virtuous and happy person will be able to endure all the sorrow that befalls him/her. It becomes slightly unclear, how much importance does Aristotle really grant to all of those external goods. Probably this claim connects to his view that person can be called happy only after his death, that is when his whole life can be evaluated. Thus, it seems that if several misfortunes befall someone, he/she can still be called happy after his…

gift of free will. The ability to choose either to do good or to do bad. This may seem a bit over simplistic, but ultimately, in life, this is what it boils down to. We can either behave in a manner that brings both glory and honor to the Creator or we can act in accordance to our own selfishness seeking instead to place our lives above Him. Once Adam and Eve made the significant decision to defy God by eating from the tree of knowledge of good and evil His once perfect creation was tainted.…

I believe that bad things happen to good people. Better yet, I believe that terrible things happen to the most innocent of people. Nothing bad ever happened to Hitler; the millions of innocent jews he killed did not deserve their gruesome deaths. Orphans as young as children do not deserve a life without a parent to guide them through it. A lot of times I ask myself, Why? Why do things like this happen to good people, why don 't I ever see bad people suffering? A lot of times I turn to God and…

two categories good and evil. ‘Good’ meaning someone who does not cause any harm to a person or thing in any situation and ‘Evil’ meaning is the opposite, a person who intentionally hurts people or things. Some debates that surround this topic are good deeds and the selfish or selfless intentions behind these good deeds and the ability of one evil deed weighing out all good deeds. Although some humans’ good actions are motivated by selfish intentions, humans are fundamentally good because they…

the knowledge to use in years to come. A time that I was so careless in school, getting by with straight A’s my eighth grade year, was corrupted by going into my freshman year, Geometry class. Our eighth grade year was still young. This was the good times when our grades didn’t count and I personally, didn’t care if my grades did count or not. My favorite time of the day was Algebra one. Now, I know that many of my classmates hated…

Throughout the ages, there has been a battle of good and evil. What caused all this mayhem? Many have tried to answer this question, and in various ways. These answers have shaped the different worldviews of history. The remarkable thing about these worldviews is that deep underneath all the outer issues runs a central theme with two sides that divides all worldviews into one of two categories. This topic has roots so deep that it affects every single other facet of the worldview. There are two…

Wednesday, Today was a good day. Today I lead a twelve step group for recovering alcoholics. In this particular group I was instructed not to use names and to try and make sure that I am I talking to everyone at one time, what my supervisor wanted to make sure was that everyone had their confediality kept. I was warned that some counselors would speak to a individual person and the other group embers would feel like whatever the counselor was saying the member was guilty of. I walked into the…

Fear is a fragile belief that someone or something is dangerous, likely to cause pain or a threat, from the article The Science of Fear by Jules Oliviera. Morality is the principle concerning the distinction between right and wrong or good and bad behavior. Often times these two terms are thrown together, one depending on the other. In the book The Inferno there is a blurry connection between the two. As our hero descends through various levels of hell, there are threats in each one that seem to…

Socrates was not a bad man. He was on the path god intended for him, and worked day and night to help others become successful in acquiring knowledge. Socrates was a good man, and nothing bad can happen to a good man, whether in life or death, because the gods are unconcerned about their troubles (45). Socrates had troubles and was a good man, however the jury had intentions to harm him with their decision. This makes the jury bad people and so I agree with Socrates when he said that the jury…
