Google`s motto should be "Don`t try to be evil with us". ;-)

SCS motto ? If you think to chamge what I belive is the motto, then say

Good or best, just do it !

Btw, I can`t stop thinking to blue elephants, not even for a minute. Coz they have red eyes. That`s to be able to hide in cherry trees.
You didn`t see no blue elephant hidden in cherry trees ? Is coz they hide very well ...

mwuahahahahaha(ha)

Valentin: sorry but only the E-V-I-L blue elephants have red eyes. The G-O-O-D blue elephants don't need to hide ;)

Halil: bro, you're one of the best people on this planet! Lovya!

Be a good girl or Be a good boy...what is that supposed to mean?

Steli Efti

J-A-C-K-P-O-T!!! cling, cling, cling...

now that's a damn G-O-O-D ( sorry but I couldn't resist) question lansy!

Well, I don't think that there is a true answer for everyone regarding this question. But trying to find an answer fo yourself seems to be worth the effort...

Anyone who wants to contribue his/her personal definition of good and evil?

Dephinition ( :-) ) of Good :
- that when I receive more than i give.

Dephinition ( (-: ) of Evil :
- that when I do not receive enough, even if is more than I give.

Adam, Dumbo was my favorite movie as a kid...damn! Now I feel the urge to watch it again too ;)

Valentin: Dude, you're totally crazy!

"Do good" does sound good, should work well... except - how can it? It shares the same problem of any guideline: the broader it is the more open to such a broad range of individualisation that it can even be used as justification for what might appears its opposite; the narrower it is the harder to follow, less relevant it becomes. How often is 'doing good' the self-perception or justification of narrow-moralled shallow-cultured interfering busy-bodies?

'Don't do evil' is no worse or better as a moral than 'do good' - unless whoever chooses it as a moral defines what constitutes good or evil it means nothing.

Steli Efti

@everythingcounter: good point! Language will always be open for intepretation as long as we don't use it in a very specific manner. The problem with such specific guidelines and rules are that nobody reads them. From a corporate point of view, a motto or a slogan, mantra, vision or mission statement is crucial for the DNA of the whole organization. But it's totally useless to inforce positive action and to define them in detail.

A motto is a starting point - not the end.

Much power to you!

Steve

It's better to do evil than be evil.

Check out who said that.
