The debate tournament in '93 went like this:
The philosopher Immanuel Kant advocated that people have rationality regardless of intelligence, wealth and poverty, beauty and ugliness. Mencius believed that human nature is inherently good, so he further added that everyone has compassion. And Buddhism says that one-mindedness is the true body, and one-mindedness is the Buddha.
It is precisely because of the inherent goodness of human nature that people can put down the butcher's knife and become a Buddha anytime and anywhere. We advocate that human nature is inherently good, that is, we advocate that the root point of human nature is good, and only when there is a good end can there be good deeds. We do not deny that there are evil deeds in human society, but the occurrence of evil deeds is caused by the external environment, so evil is the effect and not the cause.
If we insist that evil is cause and not effect, that is, human nature is evil, then there is no real morality in the human world. Although the English philosopher Hobbes strongly advocated that human beings can form morality under the premise that human nature is inherently evil. But think about it, if human nature is inherently evil, all human moral norms are used as the greatest means of self-interest for human beings.
Is morality still morality when morality becomes the means? That is to say, once a person violates morality without being punished, he will not obey the constraints of morality. At two o'clock in the middle of the night I walked on the road and saw a red light, and if human nature was evil, I would have run through it, because it was just for personal convenience.
But in fact this is not the case, and there are still many people who follow the traffic rules. Based on the premise that human nature is inherently evil, Hobbes believed that there must be an absolute, omnipresent authority to oversee the fulfillment of moral rules by everyone. If human nature is evil, no one will willingly abide by the moral code, but it turns out
People still have good deeds, people still have morality, and they still have altruistic behaviors. If human nature is inherently evil, then we have only two options: the first is to live in a world where "Big Brother" does not supervise us all the time; The second is that our human society will no longer believe in each other.
If that were the case, I would have seen an old lady fall and someone would lift her up, and people would say that she had bad intentions; And the friendships we forged in the debates were all false posturing. But we will find that in the history of human society, there has never been an absolute authority of the monarch, but the self-sacrifice of others is constantly happening. And in life, there are many unknown people who are good and unknown.
Isn't Mother Telisa's good deeds, the compassionate aspiration of Mahayana Buddhism that "sentient beings can never cross the border, then they will never become Buddhas for the rest of their lives", is not the best reference to the inherent goodness of human nature?

Newborn babies have no malice.

If at the beginning of the human being, the nature is good, then why do the two children rush to absorb nutrients in their mother's belly?
-
Human beings are inherently good. It's been said for thousands of years. Time is the only test of truth. So there is nothing to argue with. Let's go back to study.

Xunzi has put forward the theory of sexual evil, you can refer to it. I also don't agree with the idea that sex is inherently good, even though that's what most people like. The living environment is the root of good and evil.

This has to talk about the original human being, the original primitive man was a single animal without thoughts and no distinction between good and evil, since it is an animal, will it have good thoughts? Do lions have good thoughts when they face sheep?

There is suffering and desire, and there is desire and all kinds of behavior! A person shivering without clothes from the cold! When he sees someone else having clothes, he thinks about it and triggers all kinds of actions!
If he robs someone else's clothes, it is called evil! If only he could know that if he snatched it, it would be very cold for others! Can't bear to do that!
This is called goodness! Goodness is right! Or is evil right?
For yourself! Actually, it's both true! It's just that it will offend the interests of others!
Called evil! For human nature, evil is the right way to live! Because evil can continue to survive and get rid of pain temporarily!
It's for the pain! If there is no pain, who will do evil? Does evil have any meaning?
If there is no pain entangled! Human nature should be good! There is suffering and desire, and there is desire and evil is triggered!
A person who has no desires and no desires in his heart! What other evil things can be done?

If you are good in human nature, let me win, and if human nature is evil, let me lose.

Why do human beings do bad things?
Human nature is inherently good, why is there so much evil in the world?
Human nature is inherently good, why do we have to learn ideology and morality when we are young, and learn five stresses, four beauties and three loves when we grow up?

From the perspective of the law of the law of the weak and the survival of the fittest, it is very clear whether human nature is evil or good, and people are playing for the sake of interests, and they are playing for the sake of survival for a longer time, which is very understandable.
Personally, I think it's still human nature.
<> question of good and evil in human nature is a major proposition in traditional Chinese philosophy, and there have been many lawsuits for thousands of years. The first four sentences of the "Three Character Classic" say: "At the beginning of man, his nature is good. >>>More

No one is absolutely kind, just like a little child I met before, and when I didn't treat her, she told her mother that I hit him.
