hey, this post is only directed to "a truely good character would try to heal ..." not to other of your posts, alright?
say, sure, a truely good person loves and heals, and enlightens other people, but it really depends on situtaion. a good person wont say, love his enemy just because he is good, because in doing so would result needless bloodshed of many other victims, or maybe his own
his love (a good act) can lead to evil fruit.
now this is just other talk related to Hesperex's opinion:
one said evil never come out of good intentions, I think that is not true. some times, people are blinded by their own goodness, falsefully believe their actions are justed and holy (a small example: the Crusade) the Roman soldiers thought they were doing God's duty, to rescue the land which was under rule of Islam. did they believe they acted out of justice? I think yes. was the act truely justiced? that leaves history to answer
anyway, I gtg, THREE TESTS in 48 hours!!
