Do you consider yourself a morally good person?

Are you speaking of homosexual "urges"? If that's the case you need to seriously re-think your value system. How could you live with yourself if you think that something about yourself that you have no choice about is morally deplorable? This is some idea that (a part of) society forces on you, but in my opinion this has nothing to do with moral virtue.

If you were speaking of something else, forget I said anything.

It's true that I am still having issues with my orientation now. But if I were completely heterosexual, I'd feel the same way. I'm just not very comfortable having any sexual feelings. They strike me as very base and animalistic...no offense to those who are proudly sexually active. I sort of envy those who are asexual or voluntarily celibate.

I couldn't really say; sometimes I find myself thinking really selfishly, and in general I consider myself nowhere near the epitome of morality (which as Cosmos said differs from person to person). However, I do consider myself to be fair. Most of the time anyway.

I don't believe in right and wrong anymore. There's only the strong and the weak. Don't be weak.

Hrm. Maybe you have a point, maybe there is something to say for the higher brain being ashamed of the more base and animalistic urges of the lower brain. I just don't feel it that much, possibly my lower brain is dominating my higher brain in this particular area.

Hm, that's a very interesting question...
I would say I'm avaragely moral. No major crimes, but some lying against other people.
But I'm overly concerned morality. Being not as moral as I think I should be is in part responsible for my avoidance. I don't want to treat other people badly, even in an indirect way. I'd rather withdraw than risking to disappoint others' expectations. However, I'm working on it.

I wish I was less concerned with having to be a good person. I feel too easily guilty. But I don't think this actually makes me a better person.

Yes - morally good.

Don't let the psychopath tell you what it take's to be a human being. He may be living as a animal. The big strong morally pure lion will take your hard earned flesh only to lay around, and $#%^.
The stance of a human being requires some degree of vulnerability.

I feel the question of good, or evil, as it applies to me, concerns health, and the possibilty for evolution. The current luminosity of your knowledge as opposed to the darkness of your ignorance. Evil is sickness, the inabilty to evolve, and the sadness that comes with that. Good is health, the possibility to evolve, and the joy that comes with it. These are not mutually exclusive however, and its always a matter relativity, and degree. Then theres the matter of "karma". A person might grow by leaps , and bounds, achieving a state of "good" only to sucked back in by the people they hurt when they were "evil". My current state of being, and the effect I have had on our world combined. Guess I'm kind of "grey".
