I believe that our moral compass is developed between the ages of 0 and 6, also known as our tender years. So I don't tend to believe that we are inherently evil. However, one might disagree looking at the horrific acts of serial killers like Ted Bundy and Gary Ridgeway. But I do not feel we are inherently good either. I believe we are a product of the environment we are subjected to as children and like trees, each of us responds differently to that environment.
I think when it comes to humans this is the great debate. Again, referencing serial killers, one has to wonder what made them become what they manifested into. And to be honest, one can only wonder how anyone became who they are. But I think this topic will be a question for many years to come. Because even with all of the developments in science, psychiatry, and psychology. No one can say for certain whether we are naturally good or bad.
