The document argues that humans are naturally self-interested and will do whatever it takes to survive, suggesting people are inherently bad. However, over time some develop moral standards through compassion and decide what is acceptable based on those standards. Children in particular have to be taught concepts like sharing and not taking things, as their natural instincts are to act in self-interest without regard for others, even if unaware those actions are wrong.

1. I believe that humans are naturally made to do whatever it takes to survive. It is only
compassion and empathy that make it seem like we are “good”. So honestly people are naturally
bad, however some, as they get older, make their moral stand and decide whether doing
something bad is okay to them or not but naturally people will do what it takes to get what they
want. Like a child has to be taught to share and not to take other children’s things because that
child wants it for themselves. That child has to be taught that sharing is a good thing while
stealing, something he naturally did even though he or she was unaware that what they were
doing was wrong, is bad.
