Hi Atena and thanks for starting what I'm sure will turn into a great discussion......
Personally, (coming at this from a pretty specific perspective, at least in the past) I think that this is a double edged sword. I don't think it is a good idea to let society dictate for you what is "right and wrong", what is "best and not best", what is "normal and wierd".....but at the same time, we can take this to an unhealthy extreme (and I have done this)....
I was the type of person (especially up until maybe 2 or so years ago) that if you wanted me to do something, all you had to do was tell me not to do it. Then I would do it. I grew up in a very strict Fundamentalist Christian household, and was told what was "right and wrong" from a very very young age.....when I got to a certain age, and I realized that some of the things I was told were "wrong" were actually really beneficial for me (namely smoking pot and using hallucinogens/entheogens) I decided I would find out what else was beneficial for me that I had been told was "wrong" or had been "taboo-ed" for me.
This led me to a long stretch of "wandering" including some time periods which were not very healthy for any aspect of "me" (physically, mentally, spiritually). I don't regret anything, as all this trauma and struggle has led me home, but if you can save yourself unneccessary suffering, well, why not!?
In my experience, if you can get to a point of permanent connection to inner silence, then these types of questions start to fall by the wayside.... You begin to see that there are no "good guys or bad guys", and that everything (including all the "crappy stuff) happens for a reason. You start to live from a place that "flows" from inside of you, and you stop worrying about offending people, looking normal to society, and meeting all of societies standards.....It probably becomes fairly rare when you offend someone (as Unconditional Love becomes the primary motivator/motivation) but even if you do, it is not seen as something "done by you" and more something that just happens....no judgement. You can't stop someone from thinking/feeling a certain way....you can be the most courteous person around and still offend the odd person....but that is not "your fault"...you can't choose other people's reactions for them. All you can do is live from the "flow" and enjoy being Unbound Awareness.
In short....there is no "good" and no "bad".....these are "relative/subjective" terms....they mean different things for different people. Ultimately there is no good and bad....everything just Is, and that is perfect.
Love,
