Summary

Zhu Xi argued that evil exists innately in humans due to the movement of chi, while Jeong Yakyong critiqued this idea, asserting that humans have the free will to choose between good and evil. Jeong Yakyong’s argument was influenced by Catholic concepts and emphasized human action through his interpretation of ren (benevolence) in Confucianism. He believed that goodness and evil stem from human behavior, independent of natural laws.
