Used good

Ghandi once said, “I object to violence because when it appears to do good, the good is only temporary; the evil it does is permanent.” No matter where we are in the world or how much good we are surrounded with, there will always be someone or something evil lurking within.

compared to an optimistic view such as the one in Kahlil Gibran’s poem, "Good and Evil", Lord of the Flies paints human nature as irrationally negative. Through the story’s plot and development of characters, Golding portrays humans as being innately evil without the restraints of society, whereas Gibran’s poem argues that humans are innately good and that evil is a complex and misunderstood grey area. Humans’ tendency towards good and evil is better explained by Gibran’s multifaceted stance…

his palace, he begins to see others in an uglier nature. Now the sweet women who used to surround him and whisper into his ears are “dirty and distorted” (Life of Buddha, 151). The Prince is disgusted by their behavior and is sick of his-overindulgence lifestyle, so he departs from his home leaving his wife and son behind. By describing that the women are bad people because of their behavior, he presents himself as a good person. The Prince so easily puts himself in this self-righteous spot and…

Man is Inherently Sinful "Man must decide whether he will walk in the light of creative altruism or in the darkness of destructive selfishness"(Martin Luther King Jr.). This quotation from Martin Luther King Jr. reveals that man has a choice to be good or evil. Each individual has the potential to display goodness but they also have the potential to give in to sin.

I will start by addressing the importance of God’s existence. Tolstoy explains this perfectly that life is…
