Human nature is good,Human nature is evil debate topic

Human nature is good or human nature is evil is the eternal topic of debate, the following I will be logical, theory, facts, values to elaborate one by one.

(1)

TheoryI would like to ask a question, since society is made up of human beings, where does the evil in the external environment come from? I do not think that instincts and desires are evil, the uncontrolled expansion of instincts and desires is evil, Confucius said long ago: "the Taoist doctrine, the abandonment of virtue". So I think human nature is evil mainly based on the following reasons: First: human nature is evil is the crystallization of rational understanding of human beings throughout the ages, as early as 2,000 years ago, the so-called axis of human civilization, Xunzi's theory of sexual evil and Judaism's original sin said that has been echoed, and in recent times, from Machiavelli to Freud, none of them do not advocate that human nature is evil, this is just a coincidence of history? I do not believe it is so, the great philosopher Hegel said, "People think that when they say that human nature is good, they are saying a great thought, but they forget that when they say that human nature is evil, they are saying a great many thoughts". It is also unfortunate that some people have not been able to come to their senses with such insights, which reminds me of Josie. This reminds me of Josie Billings' quote, "Truth, though scarce, is always in oversupply."

Second: human nature is evil is the daily life again and again to show us the truth, from King Lear's ungrateful daughters to the "United Morning Post" boxing his wife's face of the husbands, from the sale of plasma to the United Nations peacekeeping forces to the murder of the Latin American drug lords, the evil can be said to be cross the ancient and modern, innumerable, do we still have to "Dragon Eight" in the full of evil, no evil, vicious, vicious and vicious, the four evils. The four great evils of the "Eight Books of the Dragon" to talk about the goodness of human nature?

Third: Although I admit that human nature is evil, but does not mean that the future of mankind is dark, the reason why man has become the essence of the universe, the spirit of the longest, not because he is flawless, flawless, and lies in the ability to know their own courage to recognize that human nature is evil; human beings have to determine the right and wrong of the rationality of the human being, able to promote the good and avoid the evil in order to rectify the evil of the human nature, not only do they formulate laws to pacify the violence, regulate morality to reduce the fighting, set up a government to protect the human nature, but also to protect the human nature. In order to correct the inherently evil human nature, people not only enact laws to quell violence, regulate morality to reduce fighting, set up governments to punish rebellion, and advocate chastity to oppose the intention of confusion, writing fairy tales to curse ingratitude, can be said to be painstaking, exhaustive efforts, while some people insist on the inherent goodness of human nature, the implication is that all of humanity's moral education is superfluous, a wholesale overthrow of the! Heartbroken, I would like to ask, if human nature is good, then we need moral values, laws and regulations and traffic regulations for what? If human nature is good, then personal cultivation, social indoctrination there is a need to exist?

Logic Kant said this sentence: "Evil afflicts our people, sometimes because of the nature of man, sometimes because of the cruel selfishness of man" Many students, friends please take off the glasses with rose-colored! Just as I write this, how many more wars, violence, robberies, ** have taken place in this world, and if human nature is truly good, then where did all this evil behavior come from?

Human nature is composed of social and natural attributes. Natural attributes refer to uncontrolled instincts and desires, which are inherent in human nature; while social attributes are acquired through social life and social indoctrination, which are acquired attributes.

When it comes to good and evil, just as there are a thousand "Hamlets" in a thousand opinions, there may be a thousand standards of good and evil in a thousand people, but in the final analysis, evil refers to the uncontrolled expansion of instincts and desires, while good is the reasonable moderation of instincts. We say that human nature is inherently evil precisely on the basis of the tendency of man's natural inclinations to expand indefinitely. Cao Cao said: "It is better for me to lose the world than for the world to lose me," Louis XV also said, "After my death, I am afraid of flooding the sky," the Times recorded: a British boy, he bought out his three-year-old sister in order to get a bicycle, all these places can still say that human nature is inherently good, can we say that human nature is good? places can still say that human nature is good?

Although human nature is inherently evil, our world has not been destroyed in the flow of human desire, this is because people have reason, human nature can be transformed through acquired education, when the natural tendency of human beings to unlimited outward expansion, if the social attributes in accordance with the same side of the push, then human nature will be more depraved; on the contrary, if we advocate for the good and avoid the evil of the society, then human nature has the possibility to On the contrary, if our society as a whole advocates the promotion of goodness and avoidance of evil, then human nature is likely to develop in the direction of goodness. If human nature is really inherently good, then why did Confucius teach people tirelessly? The mistake made by those who disagree is to replace reality with ideals and facts with value judgments. Emotionally, we, like all people, hope that human nature is inherently good, but reality, history, and reason all tell us that human nature is evil, and this is a fact, and only when we face up to this fact can we give up the evil and promote the good.

Second: human nature is evil is the daily life has repeatedly shown us the truth, from King Lear's unfilial daughters to the "United Morning Post" boxing wife's face of the husbands, from the sale of plasma to the United Nations peacekeeping forces to the murder of Latin American drug lords, the evil can be said to be cross the ancient and modern, innumerable, do we still have to "Dragon Eight" in the full of evil, no evil, vicious, vicious and evil. The four great evils of the "Eight Books of the Dragon" to talk about the goodness of human nature?

The value of suppressing evil and promoting goodness is a fundamental starting point for me, so I will summarize the value of the last.

First. Only by recognizing human nature is evil can we face up to history and reality. When reviewing history, I always feel pain and trembling in my heart, from the Hippocratic War to the Crusades, from Hitler's Auschwitz to the Japanese invaders' bacteriological experimental site in North China, it can be said that "** and greed fly in tandem, and ambition and violence are one and the same color" The past history of mankind can be said to be interwoven with the desire to satisfy mankind's infinite potential. The past human history can be said to be intertwined to meet the infinite greed of mankind and the unfolding of the smoke and iron blood ah! It is clear that if we don't control this evil human nature, what will it bring to the world?

Second. Only by recognizing the inherent evil of human nature can we attach importance to the importance of morality and legal education, and to the results of human civilization and the cultivation of a sound and upwardly mobile personality. In the midst of the ups and downs of history, human beings have not destroyed themselves. Human civilization is in the light of human wisdom continues to thrive, drinking water to think of the source, through which we have to thank those in the path of human indoctrination sprinkled into their painstaking sweat of these Chinese and Western philosophers, it is precisely because of their theoretical wisdom from their physical practice, it is possible for people to go from external coercion to the theoretical self-promise, self-expression of the nature of the human nature of the evil, so as to cultivate a healthy and It can be seen that human nature is evil does not mean that people will eventually become evil, and only through the social education system can we abandon the evil and promote the good, the nature of the abandonment of hypocrisy ah!

Third. Only by recognizing that human nature is evil can we mobilize all the means of social indoctrination to avoid evil and promote goodness. Time flies, the passing of time, and then material civilization and scientific and technological rapid progress at the same time, and the human spiritual home can be described as flowers and fruits. At this time we have to be alert to the basic proposition that human nature is inherently evil. Happily, in the East, we say that the development of traditional culture has begun to move towards a new spring from the first sunrise to the second sunrise. We also believe that, through the essence of traditional culture, will enable mankind from the uncontrolled desire and reason to choke and to guide, from the other law to self-discipline, from law enforcement to legislation, mankind may be able to salvage the tide from the downfall of the building and the building and will be tilted to the "night gave me black eyes, and I am destined to use it to find the light".
