No..you're not. I don't think of evil or good but of the union of the two
to make a whole person.  This may seem to contradict my earlier statements
concerning the matter but it really doesn't.  Badger said that makind is
inherently evil (or something to that effect).  I responded in kind by
saying that that is true but that it is also true that mankind is
inherently good.  The two are linked very closely.

I like the concept that mankind has the eternal struggle between good and
evil throughout their lifetime but that neither is stronger than the other
and that one force will not win out over the other.  It's hard to say that
a man, therefore is good, or that he is evil, just that he acts
differently than our moral standards allow.

Just a quick thought....If it was considered good to kill at least once
per day, would a person who saves another person's life be considered evil?
Hmmmmmm....Just a quick thought.
