(8) Good and evil

    #They all use mechanical translation, and my English is not good.

    Good and evil, what is it?  Good intentions mean good, and bad intentions mean evil, and presumably that's fine, right?

    Good deeds are to make others respect you, and evil deeds are to make others spurn you.

     So... Let's look at the theory of sexual evil (good) and the absence of evil and no good, and there is evil and good.   The theory of sexual evil is a view of human nature. He advocates that human nature tends to be evil, and that it is easier to do evil than to be good.


    [The Theory of Sexual Evil Xunzi, who is known as a generation of great Confucianism, put forward the view that human nature is inherently evil, and its good side is learned from the day after tomorrow. ]   Sexual goodness is a view of human nature, which holds that human nature tends to be good, and it is easier to do good than evil. There are different schools of thought under the theory of sexual goodness, including the theory of sexual goodness and the theory of human nature being good.   [The representative of the theory of goodness is Mencius.]

    He believed that although there are different class differences among the members of each society, their humanity is the same, and they are all "inherently good". Mencius summarized the moral qualities of human goodness into four types, namely, benevolence, righteousness, propriety, and wisdom, and believed that they were not obtained from the objectively existing external world, but were born with people.   The four sentences are the four sentences described by the Ming Dynasty philosopher Wang Shouren in his later years: "There is no good and no disgusting body, there are good and malicious movements, knowing good and knowing evil is conscience, and doing evil for good is a thing", which is generally regarded as Wang's general exposition of his academic thoughts for most of his life.

    The first sentence "There is no goodness and no disgusting body" can be glimpsed into Wang's doctrine, which was deeply influenced by Buddhism.     The theory that sex is good and evil is a view of human nature put forward by Shi Shuo during the Warring States Period. He believes that there are both good and evil in human nature, and which aspect is developed is the result of acquired education.


    If you cultivate the good aspect, you will become a good person, and if you do not, you will become an evil person. Mi Zibei, Qi Diaokai, Gongsun Nizi, Dong Zhongshu and others all support this view. Wang Chong of the Eastern Han Dynasty inherited and developed Shishuo's theory, he believed that human nature has good and evil, just like talents have high and low. Yangxiong of the Western Han Dynasty proposed that the theory of the mixture of good and evil sex is similar to the theory that there is good and evil in nature, and he believes that human nature is a mixture of good and evil.


    Yang Xiong's formulation had an influence on Cheng Yi and Zhu Xi, and Cheng Yi's theory of "Taoist heart" and "human heart" and Zhu Xi's theory of "the nature of destiny" and "the nature of temperament" can be regarded as a kind of confusion between good and evil. There is a view that there is no difference between the theory that sex is good and evil and the theory of good sex and the theory of sex evil, and that morality is also regarded as a natural talent and something inherent in human nature, and this proposition is an idealist view. So it's not clear whether people are good or evil, but I like one of the sentences in it,

    [Human nature originally has good and evil, and which aspect is developed is the result of acquired education.]

    Whether it's education or the environment, aren't people's ideas of good and evil so changeable? When doing bad things, decisively is the same as anything, but at the end... If you are a thief, but if it is a good deed, will it be better? Because others will change something because of your good deeds. But actually... [People have no good and no evil at the beginning, but because of the environment and education, evil is gradually obvious]
