Mankind is Inherently Good Many people would say that men are inherently evil, but the truth is, people are good, this is quite easy to prove, if someone does a good deed for someone, it will feel good on that person’s part perhaps more than on the receiver’s part. Mankind is good for many reasons, one of which being how people strive to persevere for one another. People also for some reason all feel the need of something to follow and/or believe in. regardless if you are Christian, Muslim, Buddhist, Jewish, atheist, Darwinist or even criminal, who aren’t really “good” but they do follow something in order to be better in terms of wealth or greatness. Manners, a whole set of rules that we follow for no reason; if people thought about it, with no manners, there would be no such thing as rudeness. People may be very violent, but no matter what someone does, they are good somehow. People are always trying to meet the occasion and help others even if it costs us lives, such as finding Osama for 911. No one had to, but they did for our dead, even though those seals could have handled it a little better. When it came to the formation of the Nazi party, the bombing and all that madness, people were 85% for the allies’ alliance and 15% for the axis alliance according to a Wikipedia “good article”. “In 1933, 90 percent of Germans showed unflinching support for Adolph Hitler. That leaves 10 percent who didn't. Hans Hubermann belonged to that ten percent” (page 65), a quote from the book The Book Thief that shows how even some of the Germans themselves were against the Nazi party. An example containing a little less death that people stepped in about was during the Haitian earthquake. Our need to help others is but one reason why people are inherently good. A very big thing that probably influences everything people do during the day and night is religion, a center of society. People cling to religion because
