Humanity does not tend towards evil. The vast bulk of humanity are good people.
The problem is and has always been that good people do not gravitate towards political careers leaving a vacuum for sociopaths and psychopaths to fill. What sane man wants a career in politics? It is only those who wish to project their power onto others that do.
According to whose definition? It's all subjective which is why God says that noone continually does good and doesn't sin. Children don't need to be taught to do what's wrong. They already do it because we are sinful. What one person regards as bad is another person's OK or even good.

Yes. I don't agree that "power corrupts." Look at Trump for proof that it doesn't, just for one example.
The truth is that the corrupt are drawn to power. That's why we see it there all the time.

Of course we are sinful. There is only One without sin. But being imperfect as we are does not equate with all humanity tending towards evil.
