Based on our class discussion, what do you think? Write your opinion below. At the end of the story, we will review our opinions and see if they have changed.
Well..... I think that humans are inherently evil. If humans were good then why create rules? To maintain order? If they were good they would not need rules and instead they would just live in peace. People always say it is easier to be evil then to be good,it is becasue breaking the rules are easier then maintaing it. When a country goes into starvation and in porverty they often want to start fights and wars, and eventually they kill some innocent people that are involved. Is that not also being evil, when humans have no where else to get and they get stuck in a dead end, they often reveal what they really are. Which is evil.
I think that humans are evil. If there is no more human in the world, then there will be less pollution, and no global warming, then the earth will be great. But humans appear, makes lots of animals died, the earth are breaking... So I think human are evil
Are humans inherently good or evil? Many philosophers had thought about this question throughout the history, and had made their own statements as well. For example, during the Enlightenment period, an English philosopher called Thomas Hobbes believed that people were selfish and greedy. However, another philosopher during the Enlightenment period, a French philosopher called Jean-Jacques Rousseau, believed that people were basically born good. But is there a right or wrong among these statements? Personally, I think there's only agree or disagree, but no right or wrong. This is because that whether something is good or bad, is mostly depended on how we are taught, and in particular, how we are taught by laws. Anyway, despite that, I think humans are inherently neutral, meaning that we are not inherently good nor evil. We are just holding on our natural sense for survival. In other words, we are just wanting to live, just like all other animals on the planet Earth. Like lions, killing other animals, eating those animals for survival. And so, are lions good or evil?
Some people believe humans are inherently good. This might be because their religion and things happened around them. However, I strongly believe that humans are inherently bad. There's no doubt that everyone is selfish inside of their heart. Throughout the history there were hundred and thousands of wars. This is the best example. If humans are good, why did wars consistently happened. Billions of people were killed, millions of family lost their relative, and tremendous number of people wound, and yet there are still a war, right now, in Iraq. This proves a point, people fight for what they want, using anyways. Although there are some charity groups or people doing nice things around the world. However, it is more important to consider that how human act in the past and recent.
I personally believed people are born inherently good in general. I think that in most cases people are turned down the worng path/way by outside circumstances. or maybe we born as a clean slate and affected by our evil environment.
In my opinion, I believe human have both side of inference but evil more than good. Little babies start to cry when they want to satisfy their desire when they are staving, boring, paining because they can't do anything. But when human become adult, they start to hurt someone to satisfy their desire such as killing, fighting, stealing.... In the other hand a modern scientist who study on human evolutionary discover about the process of brain development. They find out that babies are all having good inference who like to take pressure by helping people. Scientists did a experiment on eighteenth big babies. They pretend they are stupid on piling up books and make them falling down purposely. All the babies show that they would like to help. Charitable donations on 88 flood is the best example for human having good inference. In conclusion, there is no right or wrong among this statement. Stopping human's evil behavior we made laws to protect people's safety and benefits. Educate children to develop good inference.
I think the human are born inherently not good and not evil. People born for compete with others. That is human nature. People always want to be better than other. Sometime people will pay any price they had just to get the things they want, even they will hurt someone badly. I guess this is called "The end justifies the means". I think people do this for saving themselves. They have to hurt someone to protect themselves. Otherwise they don't have the chance to survive from this world. Some people might think humans are inherently evil just by this point, but in my opinion. I think people learn how to tolerate other people during competitions. People learn how to consider other people 's feelings and learn how to love. So I think the human are born inherently not good and not evil. People born for harmind helping ag other people. Humans are born with evil mind and the heart that can tolerate other people..
Are humans born evil or good? What IS evil or good? I believe that we arn't born good or evil; instead, we are born pure. This means that as babies we are born as a clean state, with only instinct to guide us. But instinct usually takes us down the easiest path to obtain what we need. And normally, evil acts are easier to d then good acts. Therefore, we choose to cry, instead of waiting patiently. Therefore, although we are born pure, instinct helps us move down the path of evil until there is somebody or something (rules) to stop us.
Are we born evil or good? First we have to know how do you define good or evil. Our instinct guided us throw our life. Instinct is what you determine good or evil. This makes the scale of good and evil in every person is different than others. I believe that we are born evil. It says that babies are able to lie to their parents at the third day they are born. they use crying to get peoples attention or other needs. babies start evil but with their parents help, parents guide the child to know whats good or evil. If their parents are successful, then their child will have more good than evil.
I think human is all evil.Because if day you are you see the 1000NT on the floor you will take.this is form very famous Chinese philosopher Xunzi ,In the western Aristotle he think human is evil too if you see other people do the bad you will lead and next time you will use,but if you see other people do the correct thing you are not gonna do on next time
In my personal opinion, humans can be both good or evil. Every person holds within the ability to be both. Some people choose good, others evil. However, the world is not this black and white, dark and light. They world is many different shades of gray, and most people fall int those categories. There are not many people who are pure evil or completely saint like, not even saints. All are capable to do good and evil. When people are young, if they make a mistake or do something 'evil', they will be viewed that way in times to come. The way other people see a person can help make that vision of them a reality. Good people are capable of doing bad things when put under pressure or in uncommon circumstances. Just as bad people are capabe to do good. So, I believe that we all possess both good and evil, and most of the time are fighting to choose between the two. Thank You.
