Environment
The first quote says that our environment does not control us. The second quote says that the environment is responsible for what we do or controls us. I completely agree with the first quote and believe that the second quote is wrong but not completely wrong.

I believe that a human is responsible for it’s own actions. I believe that the environment helps us do something or helps us make the decision to do something but is not responsible for our actions or us. For example: On the island Ralph was trying to get rescued while Jack was only after the excitement of killing and the meat from the native animals.

I think that evil cannot be in genetics but can stay with genes and can be with environment but I think that evil can move around. I do not think that people can start evil, but that they can become evil, and I do not think that the evil in a person has to come out eventually. I think that a person can suppress what evil that there is with them. For example: It was after they had been on the island for a few months that Jack started becoming savage, another is: They had been used to killing when they mistook Simon for ‘the beast’ and killed him.

We really need to care about what we do for our environment. It really is going to affect our world soon enough.

i believe we're responsible for our own actions. people may influence us, but in the end it's totally up to us. nice journal writing.

i somewhat agree because what happens in the environment can influence us but it does not control us.
