It is easier to be bad because it really requires no effort. It takes a strong person to do good all the time. Think about it if you did something wrong and get questioned it is easier to lie so you don't get into any trouble, it is much harder to own up to what we do and face our punishment. If we use the excuse we are all sinners and therefore can't control ourselves them we relieve ourselves of all blame making it easy to do wrong. It takes strength to do right even when what we truly want is wrong for us. Those who try to do right generally make better people. Notice I said try because we all fail at times. It is when we fail and own up to our mistake that we learn how to become real adults.

It's easier to be bad because it takes so little effort or real thought. Being bad can be as little as a careless word or something ever more horrid but anything like that takes no care.
While being good is something that actually has to be worked at. People often must put real thought in the effort to be good all day long. That's why it's easier to be bad.

The second law of thermodynamics says that disorder and chaos increase over time - in other words, it's easier to destroy than create something. You can mess up your bedroom in numerous ways, but there is only a small number of ways for your bedroom to be completely clean. So it's all about the improbability of order according to the structure of the universe - good is improbable and difficult and evil is easy to do.

It's easier to fall than climb. Success takes work. That's why only the best make Heaven. Cream rises. Be good.

being good has its challenges and it gets tough at times but it also depends on the influences you have around you the most..like the group of friends you have, if they are all just as good then it shall be a little easier..plus you will prob be curious about a lot of things.

Because humans are bound to be bad. That's the law of nature!

Being bad feels good, but sometimes hurts other people's feelings or their opinions of you. Being good makes people think good things about you, but sometimes leaves you bored and unsatisfied.

I don't see how doing the wrong thing is easier...I do the right thing all the time...and it's not hard at all.
