Humans are good

Human beings are good. If you greet someone with a smile, you will surely receive a smile in return. Humans are inherently good and that doing good comes more naturally than doing evil. We social being like to co-operate with eachother so that life becomes easier for everyone.

Many researchers argue that humans have a natural, biologically ingrained tendency toward empathy, compassion, and kindness. Studies on infants suggest they prefer helping, friendly behaviors over hindering, malicious ones.

Mahatma Gandhi said that the human soul is a reflection or a spark of the Divine (God). He believed that while humans are not God themselves but they are part of God, often using the analogy of a drop of water and the ocean. So that the human soul possesses inherent divine qualities.

Ultimately, the belief that “humans are good” is supported by our capacity for compassion and social connection, though this is tempered by our, at times or selfishness. But I still have strong belief that humans are good.

    I do believe you are right and that we begin life as good, whereas some people believe the opposite and so need strict discipline. Along the journey of life, some are treat badly and so treat others in the same way. Psychologists say that most violent offenders stem from a violent abuse childhood. This reinforces my belief that we are born good. 👍🏻
