sorry if this is already a topic.
Okay. The question presented here is "what is the nature of man?", which basically means...do you think that all mankind is mostly evil or good? Also, are you born good/bad or do your surroundings mold who you are? good luck with this one

for the sake of stimulating the debate, i'm going to challenge those who have answered so far.
if you think that a human is born neutral and chooses to be good or evil as he/she experience life, what is your definition of being good, neutral, and evil? and if being neutral is neither good nor evil, why do people say babies are innocent? |

I personally think a "Good" person is someone who actually does good things just cause as it is not altered because of the reward or punishment. A "bad" person on the other hand, is someone who does actual bad things and not have even 1 spec of regret or guilt. In other words, I believe most of the world is neutral and it is rare to find someone who is truly evil or good. As for the baby, I suppose people think they are innocent just because they can not be capable of evil acts. |
