You are the ethicist!

This article from the ethicist is good and I agree to a point but as Christians we expect flawed people to do good things and we accept that. I think of St. Paul who was Saul before his conversion. So how would you answer this question about Lance Armstrong & Livestrong?

It was recently demonstrated by the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency that Lance Armstrong used performance-enhancing drugs during the seven years when he won the Tour de France. During the same period, Armstrong started Livestrong, a cancer-support organization known for its ubiquitous yellow bracelets. Is the unethical nature of Lance’s doping offset by the fact that his Livestrong organization has touched many lives in a positive way? Is it even right to consider Livestrong in our ethical analysis of Armstrong’s doping?


Here is how the ethicist answered.
