Right & Wrong

When do you know that you are right?
How do you know that you are right?
How do you make sure that when you think you are right, you are not wrong?
How do you make sure that when you are wrong, you will know that you are wrong therefore you can correct yourself?
Does it matter whether you are right or wrong?
Does it matter whether others think you are right or wrong?
Do you want to be right?

What am I thinking about?
To me being right is about having the certainty that you are 'right'.
But that brings me to the definition of 'right'.

Typing "define:right" in the Earth Database gives a list of items of which the relevant ones are;
  • correct: free from error; especially conforming to fact or truth; 
  • in conformance with justice or law or morality; 
With the above (which are acceptable to me) in mind, knowledge of right and wrong is therefore critical.  This knowledge must however be of facts that have been verified; i.e. 'Truth'.

Assuming therefore that you have knowledge of the truth and you are doing what's right then you are not doing that bad.  You can start thinking that you are right.

Great 1st step....
