Recently, I read a book named “The Devil And Miss Prym”. This book is about a stranger who came to this village called Viscos and he came to this village to find answers: “whether human are born evil or good?” This stranger works at a weapon manufacturing factory; he has always followed the law and never does illegal trading. Then, one day his family member was captured by terrorist and they proposed for a trade of weapons. In the end, his family members died in the incident and he wander whether God is fair, as he has always been a good person and thinks that God is treating him unfairly. This story comes to a conclusion that, humans have the same instincts- Good and Evil struggled in both of them, just as they did on every soul on the face of the Earth.
I agree with what the conclusion is, that all human have the potential to be both Good and Evil, and that both side will not stop fighting till the other side is completely exterminated. There are evil in everyone mind just like in the story the villagers real intention was to get the gold bars the strangers is going to give if a murder was committed. However, there is also good in the person, strangely, the good side appears to the person in strange ways, like for the story, it comes in a form of fear-the fear of consequences that the villagers faced. Picture human like a pistol, somehow it is not fully built for evil, it can also be used for good. The bullets can be the good and the evil and the trigger is the choice human makes. The bullets serves as a purpose, it can be used for good like saving people; it also can be used for evil like using it to kill innocent people. And the choice human makes determines whether he is good or evil. So I think that all human have a good side and a evil side, it is the choice people makes that makes him good or evil.
