Yeah, nothing can compare to kidnapping children and hurting and scaring them! And stealing money from blind beggars...
Are you serious Cindy?
Often I'm bad. And it makes me feel important. More important than the people who want me to be THEIR idea of being good, but eventually I realize I'm being a puppet to MY idea of irritating someone else, and not my own ideas or long-term feelings about being a good person which is paradoxically more independant than acting out my own rebellion.
But I think TV and movies glorify "be a rebel", "people will look up to you and envy you for breaking rules" and maybe a little bit of wanting to throw a tantrum at whatever age I might be.

It's easier to be bad then good. It's easier to skip work then go. It's easier to drink and do drugs than be sober. It's easier to yell at and/or beat a child than raise it. It's easier to stay in bed then get up and go about your day.
But it's only temporary. The rewards of good are long-term: You get promoted, your children grow up and become good people, you feel better, etc...
I still do bad things sometimes but mostly I try to be good. Most people find this out after high school.

It's one of the most foolish and harmful moral axioms to say that whatever feels good must be right. There are so many counter examples that it's clear that the person really didn't seriously consider the implications.

That's interesting, our sermon in church today was about the flesh and how we sin. That is what sin is, seductive, appealing to our flesh. We are in the Book of Romans, so we were reading Paul's frustration with the war between his flesh and his spirit, which of course is in each of us.
Those who desire not to sin, still struggle. And of course we need Jesus Christ to change our hearts, since we cannot change ourselves.

No, I do not agree. It does not feel good to be bad. I believe that if ewe are truly free to choose what is right, we would never choose what is bad.
