JW are convinced that good people are only inside JW – no one else is good and facing salvation. Jesus said that the wheat and the non-wheat were growing together to the “end!” Are true good persons a special area of human being or just individuals showing inner qualities?
And if individual qualities are enough is the faith PERSONAL or NON-PRIVATE?
If personal what does that mean? If NON-PRIVATE what does that demand?

According to JWs, the ones who respond to their message are "sighing and moaning over the detestable things being done in the earth." Therefore, by JW theology, there are "good people" in the world: all the ones who haven't responded to their message yet.

wisper: i see good people........ they're everywhere.
The parable of the wheat and the weeds would indicate that good people are all over the place. They are not found in one place like the WTS say.

I think that the people selling snake oil think that the best people are the ones buying snake oil.
I'm not "selling" anything anymore, and I find there are good people everywhere, and more importantly more good people than bad.
Well I dont think theres any such thing as a good or bad person.
Everyone is partly good, partly bad. All good people have an evil side.
I believe everyone is basically good, they just sometimes do bad things.
There are a lot more "good" people out here in the big bad world than the Dubs would want you to think. I think that there is good in every one of us, as is the potential to do bad, and the individual decides which he/she would rather do. And yes, bad feels good from time to time
