Add Goodness

“For this very reason, make every effort to add to your faith goodness; and to goodness, knowledge” 2 Peter 1:5

Are you a good person?

There’s a simple way to tell, according to the Internet at least.

It’s based on what you do with a shopping cart when you are done with it. If you put it in the designated shopping cart collection area in the parking lot, you’re good. If you leave it to drift off into parking spots, you’re bad.

On Reddit, a user laid out a very detailed description of the theory that essentially claims:
“The shopping cart is what determines whether a person is a good or bad member of society. Objectively, the correct action to take is to put the shopping cart where it’s supposed to go. It’s not illegal to abandon the cart, so you can do that without consequence. … Therefore the shopping cart presents itself as the apex example of whether a person will do what is right without being forced to do it. No one will punish you … or fine you for not returning it… you gain nothing by returning the shopping cart. You must return the shopping cart because it is the right thing to do.”

Doing good never goes out of style.

Add goodness to your faith and bring glory to the Lord in all that you do.
