Humans are not inherently evil. Have you ever noticed that accentuating the positive in someone many times lead that person to attempt to continue on that path? Personally, I can tell you many times living up the expectations of others is what made me a better person.
And you know, the converse is true. I remember going to a movie where the new principal of Eastside High School, Joe Louis Clark. tore down all the “cages” in his high school. He said if you treat the kids like animals that is the behavior one should expect from them. It left an indelible impression on me.
Humans influenced by externalities
Externalities have a large influence on ALL humans. Minds can be manipulated for good, evil, and just outright control. These externalities well-honed by a few controls the minds and actions of most today.
The only way we are going to get out of it is if we give our minds a chance to go through alternate paths and not believe that because we learned about things as they are, that is how they should be, and will be going forward. We’d do better opening our minds to other possibilities especially when reality seems so tenuous.
