Cassadi Cordea: Good vs. Evil

I believe that being completely good and completely evil are two extremes when it comes to people. Good people sometimes do bad things, and bad people can do good things. I think the majority of us fall into that gray area. For example, the nicest, most honest man in the world could develop a gambling problem and gamble away his child's college fund. Does this now make him a bad person? Perhaps. The point is that he hasn't always been completely bad. And let's say later on his life, he starts to feel regret towards what he did. He then tries to make it up to his child and eventually redeems himself to his family. Is he now a good person again? You can no longer call him simply good or simply bad. Being completely good or completely evil is very, very rare. Because we make good and bad decisions throughout our lives, we can't really be categorized into just one of those groups.
