Episode 4: Is Human Nature Basically Good?

Is human nature inherently good? In episode four of PragerU Master’s Program, Dennis Prager’s sobering answer is no. In a radically secular age, believing that we’re basically good absolves us of any blame, or a religious moral code, or even the need to teach people how to be good. Despite history’s atrocities, from war to slavery to animal cruelty or just incivility in general, Dennis argues that this enlightened way of thinking has ironically done more harm than good.
