what do you consider being bad

Bad is something that a person does even if he/she knows that the probability of a negative consequence outweighs the positive--for example, a drug may make you feel good for a short period of time, but if you are arrested for possession, the negative outweighs the positive.
If you have unprotected sex, you may have a pleasurable experience, but contract an STD or have an unwanted pregnancy.

Well, everyone will have their own perceptions on what is right and wrong. However, I believe a good generalization that represents what most people consider bad is simply this:
if it hurts yourself or other people/animal and or the enivornment. Being bad is probably defined as following temptations you know are a bad idea and that will cause bad things to happen.

More important, what do you consider being bad? That would be something that goes against what you believe is right.

Badness is what is called sin by God. Everything we are and everything we do is sinful apart from Jesus. The Bible tells us that Jesus died for us while we were still bad or sinful.
Jesus' sacrifice and love forgives the badness in us and makes us good in God's eyes.

being bad is only a perception and how society around us explains what is bad and what is good, so something bad to one person can be entirely good to another so it differs from person to person and from culture to culture....
