good person: someone who has a personality that benefits everyone.
ReplyDeleteevil: all bad things in the word
conscience: something that lets you know what your doing wrong
A good person is someone who thinks of others before themselves. Evil is when all lost is good in somebody. A conscience is what tells us what to do in order to be good but if don't listen to it we can become evil.
ReplyDeleteA good person is someone who is doing the right things and helping others. Evil is doing something wrong or something that you should not have done. Conscience is making the right choice and not doing the wrong thing, but doing the right thing.
ReplyDeleteA good person is one who goes out of their way to help others and make their life better. Evil is a characteristic of a person who is selfish, hurts others, and does bad things to others without making up for it in a good way. Conscience is the voice in our heads and the feeling in our gut that weighs us down when we know we are doing something wrong.
ReplyDeleteA good person is someone who goes out of there way to do a good deed without expecting anything in return.
ReplyDeleteEvil is being morally unbounded.
A conscience is a voice inside of you that tells you right from wrong.
a good person to me means he is doing more for others than himself. It means that when times are tough he still finds the courage and moxy to help others out. i think good people try to do what is right when people are looking and when they are not.
ReplyDeleteA good person is somebody who does not do bad deeds. A good person always remains true to themselves and others. Evil is what makes a good person go bad. Evil is a force that always occurs in the world, its just a matter of who can resist it. Conscience is the inner voice inside of someone that causes him or her to choose between good and evil.

ReplyDeleteI believe a good person is someone who does selfless acts of kindness or tries to better the community or world for the good of the people. Evil is what somebody commits when they have the intention of harming or causing misfortune to others. Conscience is what someone has when they need to make a big decision. It's the little people standing on our shoulders telling us what type of decision we're making and what affect it might have.
-Matt Myers
A good person isn't someone who doesn't do anything good but they don't do anything bad. An evil person is someone who does something harmful to another living being.
ReplyDeleteA Good person a Is person that helps other people for their needs and not his. Evil is anything that causes pain, it can be mentally or physicality. A conscience is the think that makes you think before you do. It can be good or evil depending on he person.
ReplyDeleteA good person is a person who does good to help somebody or helps a situation with the intent or desire to do good. Evil is this dark thing that every person is capable of and its a dark action that a person does that either causes fear or is dangerous and causes harm to people. If I were to define conscience I would define it as the good or the thought of good in a person.
ReplyDeleteA good person can be defined as someone that is doing good things and never has thought of doing bad. They are nice to everyone and always obey the rules. They also care for others and will help others when they are in need.
ReplyDeleteA bad person is selfish and doesnt care for others. They are rude and dont try to be good. Some levels of bad can be commiting crimes.
I think a concience is when something bad or good stays in your head and it may change you.
The definition of a good person is someone who does the right thing and they treat people the same way they want to be treated. The definition of evil is something that causes a person or animal or anything harm (physical or mental) and enjoys it. A conscience tells a person between doing the right thing and doing the wrong thing.
ReplyDeleteA good person is someone who cares about everything and doesn't give up. There always there for friends and family no mater what its, even if they cant help.
ReplyDeleteEvil could be as simple as doing something that will affect others in a bad way.
Conscience is your second voice that you need to listen to because it detemines your mood
A good person is a person who does good things and who is charismatic. They are a person who you want to be around because of the things they do.
ReplyDeleteEvil is the idea of badness. Everything that is powerfully bad is also evil.
Conscience is the part of a person's thoughts that prevents them from being evil. It also tries to drive them toward being a good person.
A "good" person in my eyes is someone who is constantly making the right decision and helping others for the pleasure of good doing and not for they eyes of society. When there is good there has to be evil. Evil is based solely through satan and the actions he commits, causing harm to innocent people around the world. Conscience is the voice in everyone's head telling them when to do something or say something and when no too.
ReplyDeleteA good person is someone who tries to make someones life better and evil can be doing something that will make another persons life better

ReplyDeleteI believe that a good person is defined by the selfless acts that they commit. An evil person is someone that is defined by there selfishness acts, Also a conscience is what makes you think the way you do and how you react to a situation
ReplyDeleteThe difference between good and evil lies deep within their souls. The difference is in the conscience. The part of the person that cannot be changed by time or by the outside world. If a person is truly evil there conscience will also be evil.
ReplyDeleteA good person is someone who tries to make the good decision most of the time but in the past might have done wrong but try to always and do right even in a a bad situation. A bad person is someone who does bad even when given a choice between good and bad. The bad choices may not be as bad as murder but may lead them down that path. A conscience is something in your brain that helps you make the right choices and guides you throughout the day
ReplyDeleteA good person will do something good most of the time. An evil person will stab you in the back and cross you and treat you horribly and do bad things. A conscience is when you are making a decision your
ReplyDelete"mind" will tell you what choice is better.

ReplyDeleteA good person is someone who does the right things and is always looking to improve the world or someone's life. Also they expect nothing in return. A bad person looks to cause chaos and confusion. Always wanting something out of their actions. Your conscience is the little voice inside your head that keeps your mind thinking correctly.
ReplyDeleteThere are many "good people", and all of them have commited a "bad" deed. The degree of what s/he did will vary but no one is perfect. A good person can do a number of things and still be considered a good person. Then there are some things that a person can do, such as robbing, to where they might be considered not a good person, and in extreme cases, like murder, some might even say that they are a bad person. But we all start out as good people. Your conscience is the thing that keeps you on the good side.
