Are some people born evil?

people are born with genetic limitations for good or bad, but evil is very very rare{truly evil that is}, after that, its just a matter of their influences and the "data" their mind processes over time, this turns them into good or evil people, while some find it harder to be good, others find it quite easy{which means that their "potentials" for good and evil can be judged by their birth but the actual turning into an evil person depends both on their genetic potential and experiences and affecting incidents etc}

Evil is a term only of humans, but here you go again:
Mankind is a creation of ye "good" gods (offspring of the evil Ones), all is born in Chaos...

ALL of us (means me too) are naturally born 'evil' and are children of wrath.

Truly there is no "evil" or no "good" it is equal, like macrocosmos/microcosmos, chaos/order, etc., etc.

If there is no 'good' or 'evil', than why are some things 'wrong'? Why is it 'wrong' then to murder, rape, steal etc.? Why is it 'good' to give money, be polite, do volunteer work etc.?

I think we are all inherantly evil and it's a struggle to be good. It's something we tend to strive for and if you try you can overcome the evil within. Those who choose to embrace it find themselves slaves to evil. That's how I see it.

there are "good" and "wrong", but yet sometimes people are wrong fully accuse, who is really wrong then, when each of them think that they are right? Why are you now different than those that are really still searching for the truth than just rather following your instincts, of which you think is right?

every one is evil

“Evil” has never been proven to be genetic. You can perhaps ask if some people are born more aggressive (that is – with a higher level of testosterone) than usual. But from biological perspective, it wouldn’t be wise of nature to let us bear off-spring that hurts the species.
If we talk about mental defects then some people are born mentally handicapped, yes. But can insane truly be defined as evil?

It's like asking:
Are some people born good?

I shall meditate on this.

the omega I think you are right "EVIL" has never been proven genetic (i have to do a report on this subject can you help me please

Commando Queen not everyone is evil 🤨

It's a decision of choice.

Its just a matter of choice. You cannot force one to be evil, if you force then that person don´t have a choice, so she is not being evil... she is just doing what she´s supposed to do. If you say that there is no excuse for being evil, then no one can force you, so that person will have choice, and no one will not be forcing she to be evil.

choices is what makes a person evil

though people can have a predisposition through genetics...and upbringing.....maybe........though I feel that can be over ridden....my opinion.....many have...

But it stems from the selfish desires, we are born evil, it's up to us as more advanced creatures to rise above our petty desires for lust, fantasy, and matireals.. We need to come to grasps that we are beyond those things.. Only then can one be evil no longer.. Can some people be born more prone to evil then others? Most ceartainly. Mental diseases are inherited, chemichal imbalances can happen, and karma follows you.. That doesn't mean they should be put under any less of a standard, that doesn't mean they should be classified as Hitler's from the moment of conception, that's life for you. Shit happens..

No, evil is a culture base concept. There is no such thing as good or evil outside of a culture. People do good or evil things depending on who is judging at the time. What is evil to you maybe good to someone else.

Unless you've had first-hand expirience with evil, you're in no position to be saying it doesn't exsist. Because it does, and he doubts you'd be able to get through the exprience if you had too.. Greyman attitudes are all talk..

What people do is evil. From a Christian point of view; the person who has done evil can still be saved. From a Buddhist point of view; all people have the Buddha in them trying to come forth. Spelljammer, I have something privet to tell you, so pm me, please.
