On Morality

Why do good people do bad things?

This is not a pithy question. I'm looking for some thoughtful answers here. Why do we have moral lapses, where people who generally try to do good things occasionally do things that are bad?

And before we get too relativistic, I'm staying within that person's moral framework - they do things that they themselves acknowledge as bad.
