All of us have some good qualities, some bad qualities too.

But does any one attribute these qualities to the mankind or consider it as our own creation?

One of the interesting fact is that when we thought we have the good qualities, others may think it is bad. The only thing that I understand is that someone must look inside others and look for its good qualities instead of the bad one. Whether you want to consider someone bad or good, it is not about their qualities, but it's how you look at them.
A mere robber may not be considered as bad when they repented and want to become a better man. One must look deep inside and find the good of others. That's what makes the attribute to people.

Who is going to bell the cat? Who has to look into the hearts of a robber to find out his honourable intentions.!! Do you think the policeman or a judge will do that to decide about the time committed by a robbere? Is it possible for a physchiatrist to find out the inside stuff?

Hmmm... It means that we have to hate their "doings" not the people. Their doings are bad, but not the people. That's what I consider. Know how I learned this lesson?
I remember when I was younger, I stole money from people. :( It was a very bad back then. The victim was so furious because I stole his money. But, after a while, he told me something that I remember until now. "I don't hate you, but I hate your stealing attitude. Why would you do such thing if you know it's bad?"
It made me realize, I have been forgiven. But, what I have to change is the attitude (quality in this case) that made me like a bad person. That's why, until now I try to look at the good side of people. I know maybe it's sound hypocrite, but I believe there are good things inside every people. What made them bad is not their natural, but it's their act, attitude, considered as quality built inside themselves and marked them as bad or good.
I repented and never steal anymore. I know it's bad and I'm lucky to bee seen by someone (that victim) "caught in the act", he saw me as a person, not a bad guy. He hate my doings, but not my whole as person. Hmmm.... begin confusing... :) But, that's what I thought... :)

To be able to label anything as "good" or "bad", one must come with the other. For one extreme without the other leaves ignorance. Without one we cannot compare with the other to describe what is different.
However I too believe that it is all in the way we perceive things. Personally I don't believe in good or bad, right and wrong. I just don't think things can be labeled so black and white as the world and life as we know it is too vast and complex. It's like trying to find the meaning of life in a single sentence.

I attribute the good and bad qualities to our own sense of perception rather than blaming the mankind for it.

Hi. ssh124, this is my Philosphy, all good qualities come from God, and any bad qualities come from the Devil himself. Have a good day. Have a good week!

I have to say that while we are enjoying our good qualities, we also have some bad ones. If we could keep up the good ones and try to overcome the bad ones, we would be great and helpful in whatever. But it seems to human to have both.

Everything has both its good and bad sides. So the same applies to human also, one has both good and bad qualities. we should always keep our good qualities and try to overcome the bad ones to be successful in life to make more progress.

Sada,
I feel if we could dig eve the darkest of criminal's mind we would able to find some good qualities. No one is BAD or GOOD for that matter. We humans must have both the attributes to be humans. Some have good qualities more than the bad ones and viceversa.
Thanks.
