Good on you.

[AdipexAdipex]

you do good things because you hope for payback? does that make you a good christian?

[Coededgeme]

in my case they do. .

just do what feels right. not because you expect something out of it.

[DoctorTDent]

The universe is cyclical. What goes around comes around. If you are a Christian the bible tells us that we are to do good deeds without the thought of the outcome as well as we are to do these deeds and not tell anyone so as not to look for the praise for the deed. "To the least of these you do unto me"

You should do good deeds or things because you are moved in your spirit or soul to do them. The kindness you showed him probably ment the world to him and maybe he will go out of his way to show kindness to someone else when he remembers what you did for him.

At least he was willing to work for what you gave him. My husband stopped one time to a street corner will work for food guy and told him he'd give him a job at $9 per hour. It wasn't much but it would be a paycheck. The guy turned it down because then he'd, and I quote "really have to work"

[littlePen]

yeah I had a guy who came to my door offering to pull up my weeds. (I'm not much of a green thumb ). But I was getting ready for work and didn't have time to mess with him. I would have taken him up on his offer any other time if I was at home. He was a black guy, he didn't look to be too down on his luck though.

I'd help out more bums if I knew they were more genuine and willing to work. As it is now, I just don't know. And I never give out money. Perhaps I should change my ways.

In the meantime, I'll offer one word for y'all to think about.

Butters.

[werkeeque]

Where does the phrase "nice guys finish last" come from?

[capeAngedlelp]

Good deeds, in the final analysis, do not go unrewarded.

[loginptsa]

A good deed is its own reward.

It's not because they do good deeds, it's because they put women on a pedestal, and can't get any respect from them.

By all means do good deeds, just don't expect to get a bj from it. Repped

[EliteFranceska]

That is assuming that there is no independent definition of good.

Do good deeds because they are good, I agree.

To say that you aren't rewarded for doing them is wrong though. People who do good, are better people than those who do not.

Even if there were a completely objective definition of "good", it would still hold true. You'd still have to have some internal motivation to do that "good", just as any subjective "good", before you would try to do it.

Of course Professor Chaos is Butters' reaction to the realisation that being nice and good is futile, as he just gets shat on from all directions, most of all by the parents who beat him into being good in the first place. Well, if we're going to be philosophical about South Park... it would be an indictment of the uselessness of trying to live your life to appease (or even oppose) others, not of being nice and good.
