CMV: No matter how taboo your bad thoughts are, you’re not a bad person, only acting on it can dictate that.

Example: if someone has the desire to rape someone they aren’t a bad person unless they act on it.

This statement definetly sounds more directed towards people with an illness wether psychotic, narcissistic, pedophilic, or maybe even an injury or mutation that causes them to think abnormally but it also applies to everyday situations

Thinking about hooking up with someone and cheating doesn’t make you a bad person either.

Like I said your thoughts / desires no matter how bad don’t make you a bad person, only the way you act can determine that.

The only thing which might change your view is when a person doesn't act.

For example, if you and a friend are sitting in a room quietly thinking about rape (which certainly isn't good), and then your friend proceeds to bring home a person to rape. If you don't participate, but allow it to happen even if you think to yourself what your friend is doing is wrong , a.k.a. not act, then, yes, you are a bad person.
