[quote=@Bishop] That is... so basically every human is born evil because every human, at one point in their life has done something selfish, however small and minuscule it may have been. But that is just the way of the world, so in one word the world is evil? That is a [b]very[/b] broad categorization of evil. You can't just call the way nature works evil. Putting yourself before others is survival at its basics. So survival is evil? [/quote] Yes, actually. Committing evil just once makes a person evil and deserving of Hell. To answer your question, by nature, yes, everyone is evil. Because evil is broad. That was a false equivocation—survival is not the same concept as selfishness, though there may be overlap. The idea is that people attribute to themselves unjust and unwarranted qualities that induce an inflated idea of self. I.e. The issue is not the fact that they care about self, but rather the fact that they care about [i]self righteousness.[/i]
