Document Summary
In life, we will meet really good people. Some examples of good people are: mother teresa, nelson. Supererogation is doing something more than what is asked of you in order to do good. Most people live well and treat people well, but sometimes selfishness will make us act badly. Most people will act in the middle between good and bad. They will do good things when it is convenient for them. Some examples of evil are hitler, bernie madoc and charles. We have the capacity to be great ass holes. Escher: on good or evil humans can strive for better. It is up to us and circumstances to decide which one we are going to be. One of the only species that torture their captives. From a biological perspective we are a lot alike. A lot of our emotional capacities and instincts are the same as chimps.
