Question

Hobbes thought people were naturally violent.
Hobbes thought people were naturally kind.
Hobbes thought people were naturally peaceful.
Hobbes thought people were naturally evil.

Answer 1

Hobbes's views differed from Locke's in that Hobbes believed that people were naturally violent, not good or bad. Hobbes argued that humans have a natural inclination towards self-interest and self-preservation, and this leads to a constant state of war and conflict. In contrast, Locke believed that people were blank slates at birth and could be molded by their experiences and environment. Locke argued that humans were naturally capable of reason and moral judgment, and that it was society and education that influenced their behavior.
