To prove we are right, no need to prove that others are wrong?

Where we can know something is TRUE or FALSE? Of conscience? of religious teachings? from our understanding of GOD and OTHERS? or from our own feelings when we put ourselves in a situation such as a victim. And it also will lead us to an understanding ... GOOD or BAD? We can determine whether or not we REALLY considering GOODNESS. Because clearly, something that produces evil, can not be true. Is not that right? I was really shocked when I read an article that in order to prove that we are RIGHT, no need to prove that others are wrong .. which means not justified in wanting to BLAME others. Yes it is, do you agree? Then you are more obsessed to become someone who is TRUE, or someone who is GOOD? Right in Goodness.

Why are you shocked to read about it? I do believe that we don't NEED to prove others wrong, just to make them realize we are right, especially in religion. BUT only a few people thinks the same way. That is why I hate debating about religion, especially with "religious" people who thinks if we don't think the way they do, then they consider us evil! We should really learn to respect each others beliefs in order to be considered "good" no matter what our religion is.

Yes, like the more I see, the debate about religion will only lead to a new problem, a new hatred that never has a solution.

The good is not necessarily true. but the right is definitely good. I want to be a righteous and good. to determine whether or not there is certainly something which is seen as something wrong. if something is not seen one of how we can determine the truth? does not mean I agree blame someone else, because right and wrong in the eyes of everybody it different "depending on who wrote what they can in their lives. once again to know the truth there must be something to blame.

Well not exactly. Look at it this way. (Leaving Blame out, where it belongs) Goodness is kind and gentle. A good person is always dependable, honest and true. A good person can be trusted no matter what the circumstances. Evil is just the opposite. Evil people appear to be kind and gentle (until such time they can feather their own nest at the expense of the other person). They cannot be trusted to do the right thing under any circumstances. Right is the opposite of wrong, so if there was no Right how could there be any Wrong?

If this question will be closed, then the answer of Religion we know it was TRUE. But, sometimes religion can appear multiple interpretations of what verse in the scriptures. Is the same true with our relationship to other people with different beliefs from us. NET Conscience who need to use, we will eventually be led to something GOOD. What is true is not necessarily good in the eyes of others. Good, all done with sincerity, will undoubtedly be true for others even though they are not necessarily a principle with our attitude. Being a person's right not need to prove people wrong (blame others). If successful in the eyes of others, we will be False & No Good (Selfish) in the eyes of people who blamed earlier. Let the people judge and we conclude correctly without the need we declared the "My Right" and "She's Wrong. " As a brand / product that has the image / positioning itself in the market, so private, we have an image in people. Whether we can create the image that we are right in the minds of our environment ... back on the environmental acceptance of the impression they (in this case also the people we blame)....

Agree. Self-justification is no longer necessary, the truth based on fact was the one who will guide and point to who is wrong. Even to be no need REALLY GOOD in the movie ever existed role of the police who said he had to pass through the street in violation of the law to enforce the law and truth. I choose to be a GOOD person.

Hello dayang! The truth will set us free, as one saying goes. Thus, if you think you are right, there's no need to prove to others that they are wrong. In due time, they will realize it on their own, without need for you to spend energy in discussing and arguing with them, just to prove that you're right and they're not. The matter will not change, no matter if they won't believe you. What is right and true will always be that, no matter how many believes it, or whether people don't believe it. However, if you value the other person so much as to make him realize that he's wrong, you could try telling him. However, if he won't budget and stick to his belief that he's right despite glaring evidence, that's up to him. You could not force people to believe what is right and true.

Yes we do not need to prove that they are wrong and that we are right. It is the what we deem right to do that others see that we are doing what is right.
