But the question still remains: is there something other than nature + nurture? Nobody seems to be focusing on this pivitol question.
Sure there is. I mean some of the best raised people still commit heinous acts sometimes.

However, only an individual person knows IMO, when something they did was "good" or "evil".

It's that little voice (and no you dont learn it environmentally). It's just there. Think back to the first thing you feel you did that you felt was "evil", or not really evil, but just bad.

Why it's there? How it gets there?

That's something YOU WILL NEVER get answered by science, by tests, by philosophy, or anything the world has to offer.

But I think YOU can answer it to yourself. Consciousness/a soul/whatever you want to callit? You know when you commit a deed that breaks nature's stability.
