RE: What Are The Motives Around Being Charitable?

in #philosophy8 years ago

personally, I think sometimes motives do matter too. I mean, the ones you specified are fine, I guess. But for instance, someone who does good for one other person in order to pave a way for future manipulation of that person. At the point of when he did the charitable deed, it was good, but afterwards, when he comes claiming his stake, it's not so good anymore.

Yes, very good point. I think I will name that one 'The Back Patting Assassin.' I might do a part two on this as I think it raises alot of questions. Thanks for your thoughts.
