Some say that babies are innocent when they are born and that we teach them to be sin, others say that babies are born deceitful and that we have to teach them to be good. I know what my opinion is, but what is yours?

I think every person is born with the ability to be good or bad and the ability to choose. Society and parents/guardians and peers all influence this as people grow but, ultimately, everyone will encounter good and bad influences and it is up to them to decide. Innocent or deceptive? I don't think babies actually have the brain capacity to be deceptive. And innocent just kinda happens when you're too young to do anything really bad. A baby smacks you in the face, it didn't mean to... or did it? It's impossible to tell. This is innocence. So babies to me are just babies... teaching a baby (or even a child) to be good or bad provides one influence of many. It's still up to the child to choose. Did I mention that people also seem inherently good or bad, that's why it's harder for some to be good if they choose to or bad? Well, I think so.

Babies are borned good.When babies first come to this world,they are all adorable,cute and innocent.People grow bad if they mixed with bad company when they grow up.Babies however are all borned innocent and good,however they have to be taught the right way.

Children are born innocent. They are like clean slates. Whatever deception they do is learned behavior just like learning to walk and talk.

everyone who has an human father inherits sin from adam. that is why jesus was perfect, because he didnt inherit adamic sin. everyone inherits sin but babies do not understand it until they grow older and become aware of right and wrong and can make choices based on conscious decisions. the bible says we will be judged by our actions, but the actions of babies are almost instinctive and cannot therefore be judged

Children are born neutral. Until we pump them with lies and make them obey us and bend their minds to accept illogical things like prayers, life after death and hell fire.
Catholics used to say, "Give me a child before the age of 7and I will make him a catholic for ever." That is the power of religious propaganda.

learn shows that the rationalization human beings conflict with emotion to stumble on equitable strategies is pinpointed the area of the recommendations referred to as the insular cortex, or insula, this is likewise the seat of emotional reactions. the undeniable fact that the recommendations has this variety of physically powerful reaction to unfairness shows that sensing unfairness is an user-friendly stepped forward skill. The emotional reaction to unfairness pushes human beings from severe inequity and drives them to be honest. This commentary shows our user-friendly impulse to be honest isn't a complicated difficulty that we learn. It for this reason totally illustrates that one and all human beings have morals controlled with the help of the recommendations and that Christians are completely incorrect to purpose and declare morals as their own!!!! yet Christians discovered a manner around it! government information instruct that christians are extremely over represented in prisons for sexual, violent and fraudulent crime! The Catholic church is paying tens of millions in reimbursement for the intercourse/pedophile crimes of their clergymen on my own! Christians are extremely over represented interior the divorce courts! Christians invented the assumption of sin and then the thought you may sin, ask forgiveness, get pardoned and start up with a sparkling sheet! So no marvel that they are so professional at this is it?! A Christian is a guy that feels repentance on Sunday for what he did on Saturday and is going to do on Monday. - Thomas Russell Ybarra .

They are born pure and innocent. they can become deceptive if their parents (or parental figures) are deceptive with them.
