What would the world be like if everyone was good?
Do you think the world would be a better place or do you think evil is necessary to maintain a balance as some would believe?
The one thing I could see as a problem is that if there is a malevolent extraterrestrial out there we would not be prepared for them if everyone was complacent.

Well first of all, it depends of what you consider good. What you perceive as good, might be different from what others think. If you go by the basic, general definition though I think the world would be perhaps more advanced and peaceful or perhaps we'd still be cave men. There is no way to know how people's brains would work if they were completely and utterely good.

I think the world would be a better place if people try to not to be perfect. Accept who they are (the good, the bad and the dark sides of them), and love themselves.

Very peaceful. We would not need cops or military or jails or courtrooms. Think of the money we could save...
