European University of Lefke (EUL) Faculty of Economics and Administrative Sciences faculty member Prof. Dr Mustafa Sağsan held a discussion at Atatürk Teachers Academy (AÖA) titled “Human Being in the Goodness of Knowing: What Does It Wish, Why Is It Confused?” at Atatürk Teachers’ Academy (AÖA).

Sağsan stated that the act of knowing is one of the greatest virtues in human nature and that human beings can instil a sense of goodness around them by knowing and understanding. Sağsan, who evaluated the act of knowing in three basic approaches, stated that evil can be avoided by understanding goodness and that answers to some questions under the search for goodness can be sought during his speech.

Sağsan questioned what the semantic field of human beings is; whether there is a relationship between the state of well-being and one’s choice of profession; whether the relationship between the human being’s ability to know and being a good or bad person is due to a preference, and tried to make the conversation interactive by influencing the audience into an intellectual endeavour.

At the end of the discussion, Sağsan underlined the internal and external factors that determine the intention of people to use what they know for good or evil. Sağsan stated that the fact that human beings do not take responsibility and intervene in an event that goes bad due to their creation and remain spectators, the possibility of making a person a bad person and the possibility of distancing them from being a good person is an important distinction line to be taken into consideration, and concluded his words by stating that being good is one of the ten ways to have a strong personality and that a smart person can never reject people who really need help, so the feeling of benevolence is one of the most important characteristics of goodness.
