Ash Wednesday

Can nice people have bad motivations for the things they think and do?

  1. I sure can, to the extent I can be considered "nice."

  3. Texan99 - Absolutely! The flip side of this is good motivations for things that turn out badly.

    I'm having a bad day.

  4. Do I do anything (besides fall asleep) without a variety of motives jostling for center stage?

  5. Did the question even need to be asked? Of course. These past few years I have seen all kinds of good, nice people give into the rush of outrage, intemperate behaviour, smug self-righteous, and slander. I might have done so a time or two, but then I've never considered myself nice.
