Man vs "Nature"? As I have read for class these past two assignments‚ I have been forced to face an important distinction that I think is often overlooked by many environmental advocates (a group of people which I have been known to associate myself with). The problem I would like to address‚ or at least bring to our classes attention is the murkiness that surrounds the word "nature".

Evil – the duality of man I do not believe that the term “evil” is a word that can be used as a characteristic. I believe that “evil” is merely the label that society places upon those who are different in a specific way. It is only in our evolved “moral” society‚ that people are placed in groups depending on their so called traits‚ e.g. evil/good. In my opinion‚ everyone is a blank sheet.

Chuang Tzu by Aven Fisher Through comparing different translations of the same texts one can get an idea of the meanings for the Chinese words used by Chuang Tzu in his work. In comparison to the English language the difference in the translations of the text gives the impression that the Chinese words used are much broader terms and must be simplified before we can describe them in English. This paper will assess the second section of the Chuang Tzu‚ specifically
