Would you consider yourself to be a good person? If so, why? If not, why not?

Im a good person by mans standards, I treat everyone the way I want to be treated (which is very good mind you) I pay my bills, dont steal, obey the law aside from some speeding tickets, donate to charity etc... however bu Biblical standards Im not good, because I do commit sin. Thankfully, Im washed in Jesus' blood and God no longer sees my sins. Now, if only the police radar wouldnt see my speed :o

My interpretation of my chosen faith (Christian) and "being a good person" complement each other. But if you're asking if a non-Christian or non-Muslim can be capable of being a good person, the answer is yes, of course. Being a good person isn't necessarily based on faith but with humanistic principles base on social contract. Whether a person's motive on these principles vary from person to person (IE: spiritual benefits, karma, just to be the best they can be, etc) and  is their personal choice. I have friends that are "non-believers" that subscribe to these principles and act with accountability. And of course there are some religious people in the world that aren't necessarily benin.

Actually good and bad boil down to perception of the person.  For some what is good to them is bad for another and the other way around.  It just depends on the person and their perception of it.

People possess many good characteristcs or traits, such as being trustworthy and attentive to your needs.\n\nIf the words can't be changed, let me know. I'll ajust my answer. You didn't specify.

believing in god for me is not a base point for being a good person,because i met lots of people not believing in god but they are good, there are many factors for being a good person, one thing is to follow the Golden Rules, Ten Commanments, or simply have a good MORAL.

It depends.  What do you think is good?  If you are a Christian, then you know that you are not good.  No human is good. No animal is good.  Only God is good.  But, in our world, most think of good as an earthly thing.  I'm not criticizing the non-religious people, just saying that if you are not religious, and you think of yourself as good, you most likely are.

Yes. If you KNOW right from wrong and choose to do wrong... What's wrong with you? What kind of person do you respect? Do you respect people like you? Or do you respect people that live a dignified life who do their best to do the right thing?\nIf you feel bad about who you are and how you act then why do you do it?\nGrow up. If you act like trash then you are trash. If you are trash than you will attract others that are trash.\nDo things that make you proud of yourself rather than doing things that make you feel like a bad person. And if your "friends" find your poor actions charming, then you need more respectable friends.\nGo do something good for some one, will you?

I am a fun-loving, analytical, compassionate, thoughtful, intelligent, wickedly funny, nurturing human being. Wow, hard to brag yourself up that much without feeling the tiniest bit egotistical. Ok, so I am also stubborn as a mule and bossy as hell! :)

There are some close seconds, but number one is being good.\n\nI don't know why. I thought it was because of all the wonderful things I could ultimately have, like being close to God, becoming a huge radiant being, having love and connection with all beings, and similar ambitions.\n\nBut, I realized the other day that if I had to deliberately wrong someone to better my own situation worldly or spiritually, I wouldn't do it, regardless of God's will. I fear that it's pride, and I wonder if it's something better than my selfish mind can grasp. I don't know.\n\nWould you tell us what your most important is?

"anyone who is a good person is a Christian."  I don't agree.\n\nYou are not a Christian unless you believe the teachings of Jesus Christ.\nIt even says that in the dictionary.\n\n\n"...it takes more than (being good or nice) to be a follower of Christ."\n\nYou're right about that

That would be kind of...interesting. I think I'm human. I'm a person. I hope I am kind. I hope I have passion, integrity, patience, trustworthiness, honesty, etc. But for all I know, I could be a duck.

Of course you're not horrible. \nYou have your personal views on things, that's all.\nDon't lay guilt on yourself.
