Name me Something

Puppies grow up.

Puppies shit all over the place, and tear shit up, they smell weird, don't listen, are hard to train and are usually expensive as shit.

There is absolutely nothing that I know of that is purely one thing.

The reason is, for something to be "Good" there has to be "Bad" to it as well, otherwise you would have no definition of what the "Good" is.

For example, if there were no "Bad" Christians, how would you be able to explain what a "Good" Christian is?

You should do some reading on Lao-Tsu. He was an ancient philosopher that pretty much revolved around this idea. I believe he was the first to come up with the concept of "Yin and Yang."

Ah I suppose, I have never heard of him.

I'm still trying to think of something that could be considered good and not bad, maybe what I should do is reverse my thinking on things.

Well pretty much he says that you can't describe one thing without having something to compare it to. Thus, you can't have something that is solely "Good" since you don't know what "Good" is until you know also what "Bad" is.

The only thing I could really maybe make pheasable to being good and not bad would be Evolution, because evolution always makes changes for the better, but I'm not sure even if general terms should count.

I disagree. Since genetic defects fall under evolution, that means genetic diseases such as mental retardation and autism would have to be considered good.

Damn I hadn't realized that. Good point though. What about Oxygen? You really can't find anything bad about that, we need it to breathe it can't ever really be in abundance.

What if insects evolve so far that they mutate and become as large as humans and lay eggs in our stomachs? What then, mr Darwin?
