> Not being actively bad isn't the same as being good.

True, but doesn't being good involve not being actively bad?

No. You don't get points for being not-bad. All it takes for evil to flourish is for good men to do nothing.
So it's OK to be bad as long as you are also being good? Seems like the two would cancel each other out, at best.
