05-12-05, 10:10 PM TSF, a quick look in the PHB would have answered this question for you:

Chaotic Good, “Rebel”: A chaotic good character acts as his conscience directs him with little regard for what others expect of him. He makes his own way, but he’s kind and benevolent. He believes in goodness and right but has little use for laws and regulations. He hates it when people try to intimidate others and tell them what to do. He follows his own moral compass, which, although good, may not agree with that of society.
Chaotic good is the best alignment you can be because it combines a good heart with a free spirit.

If it is good and right to steal an object (ala Robin Hood), they'll do so. If its wrong to take the object, they probably won't.

Chaotic Neutral is the most often used alignment of newbies and munchkins as I see it. There is a right way to play CN, but too many times as it turned into CA (Chaotic *******).

A CG rogue, if given the oppertunity, might steal a pouch of gold from a rich merchant and would probably give the gold to charity.

A CE rogue, if given the oppertunity, would almost definately steal a pouch of gold, either from a merchant or random person on the street. And he would almost definately buy himself something good.

A CN rogue, if given the oppertunity, might steal a pouch of gold from a merchant, or maybe the merchant's boots because they're nicer that the rogues, or maybe nothing. Then he might give the gold to a charity, or he might buy food for himself and his friends, or he might purchase a new sword.

CN might do something good, might do something evil, but rarely will do the same thing again.
