I’ve often caught myself thinking about this....what if our right turns out to be wrong? What if what we think is evil turns out to be good? What if good is actually wrong? What if our legal system turns out to be all wrong? Would the criminals turn out to be doing right? I guess it all depends on what you consider ’right’ and ’wrong’, but I thought myself that this was interesting..

Do whatever you want. As long as you think it’s okay, it’s fine.

I guess that is right for you , cause you are questioning it, you are digging deep inside and really thinking on the subject. I had this thought too, that we are just someones dream, when we are awake, the person who is dreaming us is asleep, and when we sleep the person who dreams us is awake, and doing their own thing, and sometimes the dream may get passed on to another person, and so you have more then one person dreaming you, and they can really make your life hell at times, and that is why we have really bad times at times, cause of the people that are dreaming us. Too bad they can’t dream us into something possitive and fun, but they dream their own little world and that is us. That is a thought to think about , huh!

There is never going to be absolute right and wrong. It is all about the point of view that you take. For instance take the KKK and the NAACP. To the KKK members they are purifying the world, and in there minds doing right. But the NAACP is the exact opposite. Most people however believe that the NAACP would be "right" and the KKK "wrong". So whatever.

What is good or bad usually boils down to whatever gives you pleasure or harms you, "good" being the former. We generally regard more abstract things such as stealing to be "wrong" because we can put ourselves into the victim’s place and say "Yea that definitely would be bad if it happened to me, so it must be bad for him too." Following on the heels of that empathy, you start to have a perception of a "wrong" being done.
What becomes the law doesn’t necessarily have a lot to do with "right" or "wrong". A criminal can be just as "right" as the next person, depending on what he’s saying or doing at the time.

no it’s not, there is no objective right or wrong, there is a different set of rights and wrongs for every person.

right and wrong are determined by the majority of societies ideolgies eg you vote for the government and then they determine laws therefore right and wrong differs wherever you go.

well i don’t know what you think is good or evil, but the shit going on in the world, i would have to say most of it is really evil, people killing babies, childern, wars, rapes, theif, lieing, cheating, and i could go on and on, but i think these are evil, and good, is good, not harming anyone or anything , so i guess it all depends on what you think is good , and what is evil
