It's a difficult question to answer, is going once to a soup kitchen good enough? How about 10 times? You also have to take into account that those same people also do bad stuff. Regardless, it is a minority of people that volunteer regularly, most people are too busy with their lives.

Wanting to do good without actually doing it is relatively meaningless, at best it's a slight positive. You don't need to do big things, even small things are important, but you need to do it. Same thing with people with evil thoughts that don't act upon them.

If I had to chose whether the average person is good or evil I would say we're good, but on a +1 to -1 good/evil scale I'd argue we're a +0.2-0.3 which to me is neutral.
