I think absolute truth and righteousness exist but we all are far away from knowing it .

We just think that we know right and good .We all are morally evil and morally good .Nobody is pure evil or pure holy .our one particular action might be pure and another might be tainted .our thoughts and intention during an evil act can be pure and during a pure act can be tainted .
I want to find absolute truth before i die but i will start my search after 30 .Till then may god guide my foolish self and forgive me for i know nothing .
This is all my personal beliefs .

Very interesting idea and thought-process. If the absolute good, or absolute evil is varied and defended on both sides, from outside perspectives... There will still be pure bad people in this world. People are not born good, but some people are born bad, and that is my personal belief, based on my personal experiences.
I believe that most people are good, and I think that often the people in prison (in particular drug-addicts, which would be most of them) are better people than the prison-guards:
Many people went to prison, as their crime was done out of desperation, and often bad people do not end up that desperate, however someone who signs up to be a prison guard, more often than not, is suffering from a small-dick-complex, wanting to control people which he can state that the law says is beneath him, thus feel better about himself.

@Nemiko excellent views ..yes the legal and judiciary system many tine fails to punish those who are extremely bad but have not commited a crime yet ..but i dont agree that people are born bad ..how can a baby be bad .. like he must be tempered and moulded into a bad environment by evil parents but a baby cant be bad ..like son of satan dont really exist .

@SW-User I completely understand your view, and I know that my belief is very unpopular. A son of satan does not exist, but psychopaths, for an example, do exist. A psychopath is a person born without the ability to feel sympathy for other people - a sociopath would display many of the same characteristics as a psychopath, but due to mental illness. A psychopath does not have a mental illness, he/she was born with a dysfunctional brain.
Is it really "evil" when said person was born like this? That question would often only enter the discussion until the psychopath did something considered unforgivable in most people eyes, and I will let that part be up to imagination.
This is the best answer that I can give to defend my view on the topic, as it's not up to personal opinion, but a fact.
When it comes to personal opinions, yes, I do believe that since we all are born with individual different personalities, some of us are born far more predetermined to become bad people, or good people. People who will enrich, or people who will damage, other people on our journeys.

My best childhood-friend came from a terrible alcoholic family, and he did very well in life, worked hard, and did a lot of good for others.
My first boyfriend also came from a terrible alcoholic family, and he never finished education, never got a job, and he did a lot of damage to many people on an emotional level, besides from the fact that he'd steal as well, without the thought of a care in the world, was a pathological liar, and he never changed.
I obviously knew both of these guys very well, for many years, and yes, they had the same "tools" available. They shared an almost indistinguishable background, but ended up opposite from each other, with nothing on the outside really affecting this.

I do admire people who attempt to see the good in everyone, and often that isn't foolish or naive, but very true. I don't think it's a completely realistic view however. I understand the good intend and will/wish, but I know enough to not believe it. I sometimes wish to be 13 again.

EDIT: changed he's to he'd.
