Or may we not become fatalistic, since we see that sin is so largely the result of heredity and environment, or even of physical disease? I answer that this habit of mind will and should make us more lenient to sin- ners, because we come to recognize that what in the end was a great evil sprang from a small seed, a seed which perhaps exists in each of us. But unless we are very superficial people, it will tend to make us more careful rather than more lax in our own lives, for seeing from what s...mall begin- nings great evils flow, we will be more careful to check the small beginnings in ourselves, and so far as we may in others for whom we may be in any degree responsible. Check, or direct, as may seem best, for the impulses which lead to evil are often such as properly directed, would lead to good. As a child I used to think that bad people meant to be bad. Now I see that probably no one in the beginning at least means to be bad, we only do not mean to be good. We do not need to mean to be bad, if we only allow ourselves to drift we will be bad, but in order to be good we must mean to be good.
