I even thought about not putting the poll up because of the insufficiency of the words, but I wanted to see what others thought, and I wasn't sure what words to use.

Humans are made in the image of good=inherently good Humans possess original sin=tainted bad The term "basically" obscures the poll from a theological perspective. My argument: to become more human is to become more good. If Jesus was fully human, then humanity is basically good. So, my answer is good, but that doesnt' leave room for the tremendous qualification of original sin. You need a different term than "basically." "originally" good "possess" evil I don't know what other words you could use. I’m commenting here since there’s nowhere to comment on this on your poll.

“originally” good
