The Philosophy of Good and Bad

Litmus Paper:

Today I sent a "quote" that I will not reveal the name of to a dear friend of mine whose depth of intellectual power I believe in. My main goal was to find out what conclusions could be drawn from a falsely misspelled article, after all, the right and the wrongs were all kind. The answer to this article would be the ability of his intellectual power to distinguish between right and wrong.  He chose the hard thing and got the right out of every line and came back to me.

We must take the right things from everything we read, see, listen to and watch and incorporate them into our lives. Of course, if  we say that this situation is a little related to who you walk on which road and arm in arm, I think we will not be making a wrong statement.  I want  to tell you, my  own window, what good and evil are.

The concepts of good and evil; The criterion used when evaluating religion in terms of  ethics and  philosophy is morality. While the concept of good has a  positive meaning in terms of morality, the  set of objects, wishes and behaviors that evoke a negative connotation  is  defined as bad.

What does good mean,  what is good?

Good;  iare the behaviors that people should do. It is the morally valuable one.  You know,  what we call a hlak is the  most  basic concept of philosophy. Good is generally  used to  express things that are beneficial to man, his environment, society, and humanity.   Good is the concept that shows the positive characteristic  of the moral. Good,   which leads to any goal, that is suitable and successful for a purpose, that helps man to realize himself fully,  it is also useful for other people.  In other words, it is  seen as good to things that meet the needs of fifty people, that correspond to human interests and wishes, that bring benefits to a person, to society, to a class, or to another group.

The perception or understanding of 'good' may vary from society to society. For example, the  theft of  a  child,  commonly known as 'bad'  in  almost all societies today, was a behavior that was viewed with a good eye in Greek society  .    Interesting but true.

Strengthen people's bond with the society they live in and the most important concepts are goodness and goodness.  Goodness, the level of development of  a  society adds added value. Good deeds  serve as insurance in order to prevent fights, conflicts and undesirable situations that may occur in the flow of social  life.  In societies where it is common to do good, it  softens the relations between individuals and assumes a restorative function in broken relationships.

Goodness means help without expecting any financial recompense.  Doing good deeds makes us happy. It makes us feel good. In addition,  the person to whom the good deed is done is also happy.  Doing good relieves one's conscience. It makes you feel happy.  Individuals who do good deeds are  accepted as good people by their environment and are loved more.

A person is happy when he does good, and the reasons for this are as follows: Giving something to others increases social relations, as well as thinking more positively about the purpose of life, making a  difference, being able to get out of  bed every morning  refreshed,  such positive emotionsas giving those who do good.

It is not necessarily necessary to look for good people to do good. Sometimes a favor done to a person who is on a bad   path  can lead him to the right path.  Therefore, it is also a good to prevent a person from doing evil. It is also a good to appreciate what is good for the good he has done. It gives that person morale and makes him behave better.

What does bad mean, what is bad?

It is the place to say that evil is the antithesis of good. Whatever I wrote for good, it will be enough for us to write the opposite things for evil. If we talk about evil in short, let us first know that what we call kötüluk consists of  someepithet. However, the universal-general definition of bad has also been made. Evil is what is  done in accordance with a voluntary decision, which is seen as contrary to moral rules and good; what prevents the attainment of happiness, goodness and beauty, this kind of behavior is what prevents it. It has negative connotations.

Evil is often associated  with things like  selfishness, ignorance,  self-interest,  and negligence. To make a general and short definition, it is to harm those around it financially and spiritually.

The source of evil isthe lack ofknowledge. A person who acts without feeling cold does not think that an action he does  can harm someone else. Strangely enough, such people feel no responsibility for the 'evil' caused by their actions. The source of evil;  it is lack of ideas, thoughtlessness.

People who commit evil do not easily find social support from the people around them in case of need.  They are usually impulsive, aggressive or selfish, experience feelings of loneliness more than good people, are less preferred by other people,  and find it more difficult to find help.

What do i and evil mean philosophically?

The concept of good mostly refers to the behavior that should be preferred when a choice is made between possible actions. Goodness is generally considered the opposite of evil (evil) and is studied by issues of morality, ethics, religion  and philosophy,  and is defined in separate ways.

Manichaean cultures and Abrahamic religions see the concept of evil as the opposite of good and argue that evil must be eradicated.  Evil is considered a problem in this aspect, and it is desirable for societies to be cleansed of evil and for good to prevail in society  . In this direction,  adults, parents and scholars inculcate and expect to make suggestions to their children. Education systems are designed to raise good people.

The problem of evil essentially belongs to theism, which regards God as an absolute good and an absolutely powerful Person. Augustine  dealt with the problem of doctrine for the first time in the history of philosophy. Although  hebelieves that everything that happens is created by God, he does not believe that God created evil.  According to him, evil is not a 'thing  ' but a lack or deficiency of a 'thing'. According to  Augustine, man is a being with reason and free will. Moral evil arises because these faculties are not used in accordance with the purposes for which they were given.

The criterion of good and evil is one of the fundamental questions of moral philosophy. In moral philosophy, the behavior that is considered appropriate and proposed to be done  is called good; the actions that are forbidden to be done and that are not considered appropriate by morality are called  bad.  Moral criteria;  good, evil, conscience, moral  law, rule, ethics, will and moral  action. Since all of these concepts are abstract, they have been interpreted differently by each philosopher

Morality is primarily trying to distinguish between good and bad behavior. Although the behaviors that are welcomed positively by the majority of the society are called good and others are called bad, the good-bad place can change according to the time and the perspective of people and societies. Moreover, the evaluation of human behavior from good and bad aloneis not enough. In order for a behavior to fall within the subject of morality, the individual must have the freedom to choose one of the different behaviors. It is the freedom of choice that involves a behavior as a matter of morality. It would not be right to characterize an individual as good or bad for a behavior that does not have the freedom and will to choose. Just as the behavior of animals cannot be described as good or bad. When we look at human behavior from this point of view; The good-bad is becoming even more pronounced.

Man must first be free in his moral actions. Freedom is the power  to choose between "good" and "bad" behavior.  Although there are reasons that affect a  person's behavior, a person creates his own  moral values. The most effective reason for determining the freedom to form this  moral value is  the personality of man. For example, a child born into a fast-paced family may  set his own moral values and refuse to steal.

Good is the behavior expected from the individual who has the opportunity to choose it. The bad are the actions that should be avoided. However, good and bad is a concept that varies from society to society, from age to age, and even from individual to individual.

Living in a society where the good ones are multiplying and the bad ones are not at all if possible,  I would like to close the language with my words, a few of my own poems:

Good and Evil Are A Brother

Humans are the created part, the part,

Some are good, do good, are referred to as such,

Some are called evil, who do evil,

One way or another, life is lived.

He who does good deeds is always loved,

He is treated with respect,

He is always called a good person.

Friendships are increased with kindness.

Those who do evil are always condemned,

He is looked upon badly,

He is called a bad person around him,

The bad ones always win the enemy.

We are all human beings, good or bad,

We live together in this world,

We are in favor of friendship, we are far from the enemy

We will live this life together.

Let us all be in good deeds,

Let us be among those who move away from evil,

Let us love, be loved and be respected,

Let's live this life in happiness.

I wish that they are good and that goodness will always exist,

Let us be free from evil and enmity,

Let's look at ourselves in a happy and contented life,

Let us all enjoy life...
