The most natural thing a human can do is look out for themselves. You don’t have to teach anyone self-centeredness, we’re just born that way. On a certain level, this is a good thing because we all need some level of self-interest simply to survive. It’s healthy to seek out our basic human needs such as food, shelter, love, etc. However, what our sinful nature inevitably does is turn healthy self-interest into unhealthy selfishness. And because sin is universal, this selfishness is also universal.
