I guess on the flip side there are some people who are born good =)

I agree. I believe some people are born evil.

I've seen the “Bad Seed,” and also the remake “The Good Son” with Eljiah Wood and Macaulay Culkin. When I saw those movies, I wondered if there are just some people who are born evil. I think that there is, but I wonder if how Ti xxx asked, will there be a way for scientists to find out what triggers that?

There's a campy film on this topic called “Bad Seed”. YMMV

If there is such thing as a “criminal brain,” then maybe we can figure out what are the triggers of “evil.” If that is the case, then maybe designer babies would create world peace. However, it's just like he said in Jurassic Park…”Nature finds a way.”

so then.. do u think u could tell from a foetus whether it would be the next hitler or not? Maybe not now but in the future? Plus.. if so could we add this as a feature to designer babies and create world peace (in the future some time?)

I do think that a child who has criminal parents has more of a chance to do evil things that another child. However, I think that is coupled with his/her environment as well.

if you look back on the article about criminals having different minds, wouldn't that pass on to a child of two murderers while it was still in the womb? If so this would make it mare likely for the child to turn out evil, but you are righ: that doesn't make it certain that the child turns out to be evil as long as it is looked after in a loving family, but before the child gets the chance to learn about morals, would it be more evil than an average child might be?
