It's not all Black & White

I would not disagree with the thought that there are forms of pure evil in the world today, but I do believe that no one is born purely evil. Society, and the temptations that it brings, can easily corrupt anyone. We have the choice, however, not to succumb to them. Those who are strong enough to remain good rise above the negative aspects of society. On the other hand, there are those who fall to it. This by no means qualifies them as evil. There are many who under the pressures of society make wrong decisions at times. For example there is the Bernie Madoff million dollar ponzi scheme. He was raised in poverty and worked his way to the top. Due to the high pressures brought upon by society, he felt the need to stay on top and dominate the investing world, even if that meant he must cheat to do so. Although he conned many people out of millions of dollars, it doesn't mean that he is a bad human being, nor was he born evil. He grew up wanting just wanting to make a successful life to himself, but fell to the pressures of those around him. All in all, there is definitely a grey area between those who are ultimately good and evil, and everyone is born good. Its just the choices the make that can be evil.
