You and I choose evil every single day, either by thought, word or deed. It's just that there are so many greater sinners than you or me (assuming we are 'average normal' people).
We're born evil, that's the doctrine of the depravity of man, original sin.
Speak for yourself.
I am not perfect, but I strive for it every day.
Yes, that's all I'm saying, it's good versus evil, a struggle every day.
Just that some are worse than others. My grandpa on one side was a drunk, just trash.
Other side though, he contributed much more to society, as my father-in-law, a very temperate and cool headed man, no real vices per say, and I always wished I'd had that natural tendency, to patience etc.
A man, at any age, always looks at life in a different way from a woman. A man looks first to secure a woman to have his kids. Then he lets her raise them with his guidance. When they are grown, he seeks a higher level of achievement and if he's done a good job, his grown kids will follow in his footsteps.
