Well, of course it is easier to be bad than to be good. There's a saying, "it takes 3 days to learn to be bad, but 3 years to learn to be good" Agree? Jus think of a good thing to do or behave..... Do you think it is easier to be good or bad.? For example, you jus finished your can of drink. The nearest rubbish bin is 50m away and you are not going to that direction. Good thing to do is to walk out of your way to dispose your empty can and keep the streets clean. Bad thing to do will be jus leaving the empty can anywhere at your convenience...
Good things are generally "more difficult to do". Bad things can be done easily. You can spoil something easily, but you need some time to maintain it, or even repair it.
Being good is the "correct" thing to do. Certain aspects of life will deter you from being good.. Laziness is one of the reasons i guess...
Being a good man, you need to take note of many things.. Your attitude, your behaviour, action and so on. What abt being bad? Jus do watever you want regardless of everything and you become bad..! Easy right?
Let's make this world a better place to live in and let's all be good.. only then will war, terrorisms and even small minor matters be gone..

To be honest, I think it's easier to be good. Being bad takes a really thick skin and a surprising amount of energy. As Oscar Wilde said, the easiest thing in the world is to be nice to someone you care nothing about.

I hate to say this but its the truth...its easier being bad. its jus like disorder is a more natural state than order...u dont invest energy...well not a lot...in disorder unlike order...wer u invest energy.

This has reasons ofcourse if u believe in christianity...God gave mankind the freedom to choose between right and wrong. The freedom to choose which ball game to play...His or satan's...I think why its harder to be good is so coz he's laying low making u choose wat u want, whilst satan is busy doing his thing. When u decide to change to become God's Kid, u r afflicted by choices to make...hard choices...but if u stick with the Lord during such perilious times ur relationship GROWS in such a way that u become a formidable foe of Satan.

the Lord's rules are good for you in the long run whilst Satan only gives u short term and later destructive....like sleeping around n then getin AIDS or smoking...then u get cancer e.t.c

Being bad is always easier, but not always what's right. There are a very few instances when doing the right thing means not doing the right thing...but very few. Take the high road!

Common sense answer; is easy to be bad than good. Anywhere you go, whether in school, working place, clubbing, shopping;etc you can pick up alots of bad things. As an adult, you should be able to differential bad and good. Otherwise, if you are a teenagers or children then you cannot.

Its easier to be bad..cuz you don't have to worry about offending others and being a nice person.. When you are good-- you have to watch what you do..you say..you act etc... Me personally like to put forth the effort and be nice..More people should try this also..

It's easier to be bad because all it involves is doing whatever comes into your head.
Being good takes effort because you have to want to know the difference between right and wrong. Then you have to make the effort to do the right thing.

Depends...it's easier to be good but sometimes when you're nice and good - ppl either made use of you, take you for granted or even jealous of you. Some are even nasty to you because they're jealous that you're so nice and they can't be like you...

So when being nice doesn't work anymore - being assertive, nasty and bad is one way to protect our broken heart. We show others that "hey, I may be nice/compassionate, but i'm not an idiot!"

Generally it is easier to do the wrong thing than the right thing. Doing the right thing ie being good means sacrificing time, money and your self interest.
