The theory of good nature and evil nature are the views of Mencius and Xunzi, two representatives of Confucianism. Among them, Mencius advocated the theory of good nature and Xunzi advocated the theory of evil nature.

First of all, it is impossible for Neo-Confucianism in Song and Ming Dynasties to advocate the theory of evil nature, which can be concluded. From the analysis of the knowledge learned in high school, this is related to Zhu's "Knowledge". Zhu compiled the Four Books, which separated the two books, Daxue and the Doctrine of the Mean, from the Book of Rites and called them together with The Analects of Confucius and Mencius. In other words, Confucianism that Zhu believes in is the way of Confucius and Mencius.

But the simple theory of good nature is not enough to explain this topic. Since it is a theory of good nature, why should we "preserve justice and destroy human desires"? Let it be. Zhu also reformed the theory of good nature. The so-called sexual similarity, learning from each other's strengths, was later explained by Neo-Confucianism. Zhu advocated that human nature is good, but it gradually changed due to various influences from the day after tomorrow. Some people become moral gentlemen, while others become evil villains. This is learning from each other.

So in general, they should be good at learning.

Hope to adopt!
