If a car stalls on a highway, some stranger almost always stops and gives the driver a jump or a lift or some assistance. Why do you think that happens if men by nature are "evil" and "vile"? It is up to you to explain the millions of acts of kindness and caring that men do as matter of routine and normalcy every single day within the confines of your "human nature is evil" philosophy.
Man is basically good as shown by the way normal men act?
How do normal men act? If they step out of that "normal"
mode of acting, can they redeem themselves and be good
and the bad they have done no longer matters? How do you
judge it all?
