Good Thesis Statement or Not
Can you tell me if this is good or goofy: “Being just sometimes requires being unjust”?

Without a body and a conslusion it doesn’t make sense. If you’re going to use this as a thesis statement, make sure you provide clear explanation. Taken alone, it souds demagogic.
You want to tell them what you’re going to say, then tell them, then tell them what you just said.
That’s your basic structure: intro – body – conclusion, neat and consistent. -
Is it like a paper on religion?
The road to hell is paved with good intentions?
To be nice you have to be bad?
I like those papers, they do not require much heavy thinking. And that’s a nice thesis you have there. -
Depends on what you are trying to say. As I see it, it’s either a deep philosophical stance that can help you start a new religion or a bag of nonsense. You need to ground it properly, otherwise, yes, you’ll sound goofy.
