The notions 'sin' and 'guilt' Concerning man's misbehavior thinkers usually put forward the argument that the physical system of the human body is cursed with a lot of passions, instincts and other irrational tendencies, which continuously disturb man's good intentions. This is considered to be the cause of all evil in the world. These thinkers say that the so-called natural qualities, in their opinion immanent in blind and inhuman nature, inevitably belong to the phenomenon man as well. He can't escape from it. So their meaning is that it is the entire physical world which is guilty for man's bad conduct.
Nature is the instigator of evil.
In the Christian religions this relation between nature and evil is known as the notion 'sin' or 'original sin'. In accordance with Christian belief only God is able to rectify this situation. Many other thinkers argue that it is incorrect to qualify the entire nature as fundamentally wrong. They state that within nature only the possibility exists to make faults incidentally. In fact these faults must be considered as little imperfections.
