This statement is asserted indiscreetly and more or less arbitrarily. Part of the problem is in defining what is a "worthy goal", admittedly, there are the goals are truly desirable and that could be beneficial to the entire world. However, this kind of goals seems like the utopia. Practically, there are lots of goals that may worthy to some but detrimental to others. Even assuming that a goal is truly worthy, it is extremely broad overstatement to say that because a goal is that valuable, any approach to the fruition is justifiable.

To begin with, albeit via serious deliberating, there is no ideal answer to the question:" what is a worthy goal ?". All the merit of a purpose is relative to both time and space, and in term of individuals, the goals of one person may totally inapposite or even maleficent to others. Is it a worthy goal to desire to have a million dollars? Is it a worthy goal to live in a commodious and regal house. And what about the goal of having a beautiful rich wife or a handsome wealthy husband? No one will doubt that as individual these are indeed worthy goals. However, thinking in the context of the entire society, these goals may not be commendable to the population as a whole. Some one may want to own fifty percent of all the wealth of the world, so if it really occurs, how about the condition and the feeling of the rest billions of individual beings. That's why there are temporal fierce competitions in the mundane, namely due to the goal to attain a
desirable fruit may simultaneously means loss of others. So it is undue and bootless to define a worthy goal upon some facet.

Further more, even to assume that there is the valuable objective of the catholic significance, it is unfairly to say that any tactics are to be connived in order to realize the goal. Laws, which is the pith of the civilization of human beings evolving during thousands of years, shall never be overridden. And human rights as well as morality shall never be overlooked. It is a laudable goal to prevent and solve the problem of environment contamination. However, to close all the chemical industry factories in the world will lead to the blast of economy to human beings. And to contain the booming population in some developing countries may be a creditable goal, but it is certainly out of the question to compel all the civilians to take sterilization. And it is also a absurd action to stop all the cars running on the road in order to diminish the injuries by traffic which seems also a praiseworthy goal.

To sum up, we are in the commune, it is hard to define what is a worthy goal without any viewpoint fixed, the world will be out of counterbalancing if there is too much avarice. So the striving of individuals can not be harmful to others of law. In the term of the whole society and our worlds, the approach to realize any titled creditable goal should not defiance the law as well, including human rights and morality, or it will profane human's own history and compromise the offspring. So to say that any means are justified to reach that goal may very well be impossible when one considers that wide range of repercussions that may follow from such actions.
