...”The way to deal with evil is to first acknowledge that it exists and that we all possess the potential for it. We don’t become evil by what we do, but because of who we are. We are human beings, not God. We are not “basically good,” as some claim, we are imperfect and fall far short of any true standard of perfection”...
I have observed people and children all my adult life, beginning with those in my own family and I have come to the conclusion that some people are truly born evil and no amount of good parenting or advantages in life or anything else will change them..We need to try our best to do so, but I fear it cannot be done. On the other hand, I believe some are born truly good and that nothing will change them..Having said this, I am a Christian and I have read the Scriptures to try to explain my feeling about this to myself..I have come to a conclusion for myself but will not explain it here. I do not believe that all of us come into this world the same as far as good and evil are concerned. The greatest danger to society are those who are evil but possess an extreme charisa so that they can eventually dupe whole nations and enslave the people. Hitler would be an example.
Also take into consideration two things, that God has given us free will and we can chose between serving God or the Enemy.
Also there is spiritual warfare that we do not see that is ongoing.
