Is Man Inherently Evil?
 

Well, are we born evil? I really don't think so, I mean...it rather depends on the upbringing, but whatever. I have to debate this shit tomorrow, and I want some facts (psychological, religous, scientific, whatever) on the subject.

Your opinion, masters?

Wtf? thats a retarded question? why ask it if you can answer it ur self?

Its not a question you can just answer yes or no to... And if you read the post you'd see he was asking for opinions.

I'll probably write a proper response later..

Wow, Kings in an intellectual forum? Holy shit...

i don't believe man is born evil

but in the world we're living in today i think there is so much evil doing around the world, in every shape or form, that it somewhat desensitizes people as the grow up, and it leads to a lot of people neither feeling shocked nor appalled at some things that the older generations would be disgusted at. And if people no longer feel bad about doin bad things then it leads to worse and worse things being committed and it could be interpereted as evil doings.

basically i think the world influences some people to become evil

but then that leads to the question, what makes the world evil?

I'm wondering where our perspective on evil even came from. If we were like the other animals we wouldn't even have a sense of good or bad. All people are born pure, from then on is when you become whoever you are.
