Human Nature

Yes, I have concluded that people are born evil, to hate others and themselves, but immediately I insist that the following qualifier is critical to providing proper context. People are born primarily evil, but not entirely evil. They are still perfectible. People are born as mostly but not entirely corrupt robots. The good news is that they also possess innate but weak, recessive traits for goodness. Part of their will is born free, not enslaved by natural or supernatural genetic, biological and supernatural forces, be those controlling forces good or evil. People are roughly 60% innately depraved, will-less puppets. The rest of their biological and spiritual makeup is 40% innately good, free-willed agency. With proper, ethical upbringing, love and faith in God, others and the self, each human being can grow into a good person. The more the individual person maverizes, actualizing her potential as a living angel, the better and more free she becomes, and then her will might become 70 or 80% good and free, as her developing consciousness enables her to appreciate that knowledge, long internally instantiated good habits and growing awareness and wisdom lead her to be a good, holy person leading an exemplary life. She still enjoys developing free will, but her will to do wicked, hateful or stupid things proportionately decreases.
