Whether an atheist or a creationist, the most researched arguments will incline towards the same conclusion: people are inherently evil. Creationists who hinge the existence of man on the story as told by Moses in the book of Genesis must understand that, as backed? by the same book, God created both good and evil. If the account of creation is to be believed, then the creation of evil is also to be believed as a premeditated design of the creator. Evil can then be said as created to exist with the other creations. When Adam and Eve occupied the Garden of Eden, they only had to choose between living in obedience or disobedience. In this particular case, obedience can be said to be good while disobedience is evil. If God knows everything, then he could be said to know that Adam and Eve would disobey. Why then did he not remove the evil part so they could live in obedience forever? The answer is simple; Man’s evil part is his free will. Stopping a man from being inherently evil is the same as imprisoning the man. The level of this imprisonment does vary. Man did not become evil after eating the forbidden fruit. No, he was evil right from the dust. Man’s free will is his tendency to choose evil when aware of the existence and consequences of both good and evil. What makes a man choose good ahead of evil is not his free will but things that aim to check his free will. These include morals, laws, religion etc. From the creationist angle, all people are inherently evil.
From the atheist’s angle, the well researched conclusion remains the same. In the first place, nothing can be more evil than chance and evolution. In this case, survival depends on the elimination of the unfit for the fit to survive. In an evolutionary society that is not evil, both the fit and the unfit will have the same rights and an equal chance to survive. But this is not so. Every inclination of the evolutionary man, whether conscious or unconscious, is designed to beat his fellow man in the survival game. What can be more evil than this? Is it robbery, murder, war, genocide or rape? None. They are all the unpalatable children of the evolutionary mama. The need to survive gives birth to them all. All people are inherently evil. If i am not evil, then i haven’ t faced the challenge to survive in an evil way.
