Finding Paragraph #3

It is now time for the underlining question to be answered. Are humans inherently evil? Perhaps the story of John Wayne Gacy will be able to sway your opinions. "The Gacy children were raised as Catholics and all three attended Catholic schools where they lived on the north side. Growing up, Gacy was a quiet boy who worked odd jobs for spending money, like newspaper routes and bagging groceries, and busied himself with Boy Scout activities. He was never a particularly popular boy but he was well-liked by his teachers, co-workers and friends from school and the Boy Scouts." This man, John Wayne Gacy, had a normal childhood. He had normal problems that most children had to deal with such as a bad relationship with a parent and a hint of depression. However, he became a serial killer. How can such a man with such a normal life and childhood be a serial killer. There is an answer. He is human, and he, like us all, are born evil.
