"Humans were born to be good and evil." This discussion is controversial as it includes our own species and the nature of our good or evil, and it is also very subjective. Humanity is a belief that humans have a natural intuition or tendency in thought, emotion or behavior. According to Plato, "Evil behavior is done only by ignorance, so evil is essentially contrary to the nature of human beings, so evil can not live in the minds of people" (Bates, C 1986.) Language is used for human beings to be good and evil, proving that people can not be a wickedness of nature. Evil behaviors committed by people would be the result of ignorance of their environmental or social value. Humans are born with subconscious thinking, emotions, and actions until they are taught in a different way to mankind to express malice.

Humans were born to be good and evil? That's a good question. Therefore, please ask whether human beings are inherently good before the environment and education may affect our thoughts and actions. The bad thing is to ask which condition is part of our basic nature or character. I think that the baby is crying because he left the safe and predictable place and entered a place where good and evil fight for all the world, an eternal struggle. Not because it can cry for birth reasons, it is inherently selfish and to pay attention to satisfying its own needs.
