I can still remember the first time someone told me that they believed in the Calvinist doctrine of “the depravity of man.” It shocked me. To complain about human behavior I very well understood; there’s plenty of bad behavior in the world. But to flatly call the human species depraved… hopelessly unredeemable… that was, and remains, obscene to me.

While I don't fully agree with the Calvinist doctrine of depravity, the idea that we're imperfect and trend towards immorality doesn't seem far fetched to be. Seems evidenced by motions to everything... And idk how that's fixed from within on our own.
