"What is man?" This is possibly the greatest question humanity has to offer. There is no such thing as true advancement until you recognize what you are, what needs to be done, and how you can embrace what you are in order to get what you need accomplished. However, what if who you are is "evil" and what you need to do is "survive, satisfy your own wants, and destroy anything that gets in your way"? Do you embrace what you are and submit to your evil, or do you try to deny yourself and try to diminish the evil inside yourself?; furthermore, do you believe there is a way to deny yourself? I believe we have to answer this question, for I believe humans are born evil. Humanity has demonstrated time and time again that it causes more harm to its environment and other living organisms around it than its provided help. Whether it be the holocaust, the Nanking massacre, or the people who just kill for the sake of killing, humans are inherently evil.
