Good and Evil

Human beings are not born Good, nor Evil, but both Good and Evil.

Doctrines can not make a good man better, nor can it turn an evil man good.

Doctrines are created for survival needs of human groups, so a plain truth for most people can be a total fault for a few, a noble creed for one group of people can be a devilish cult to another.

  1. I don't think people are inherently Good or Evil, but have a capacity for both according to their actions. It's not the person who is evil, but their behavior, which in most cases they can change if they set their will to it.
