No people are not basically good in and of themselves. One thing this texts fails to mention is the heavy dependance the United States had on Judeo Christian values.

The texts argues that man is innately good and that to ensure morality one must look to themselves as the guide. This view was considered revolutionary at the time. But the truth is these ideals only serve to flatter oneself and serve little to no purpose in actual morality. The problem in there logic is that they are trying to make truth a subjective topic rather than an objective fact. The difference is in a little bit of a morbid example "it is wrong to murder" this would be an objective fact accepted by many religions and peoples. But if everyone looked to themselves for the rules you would have people potentially, that disagree that murder is okay. The problem now is that the deist have made truth subjective meaning that "everyone is right in there own eye". This means that the murderer who thinks murder is justified would then be innocent in his own sight and with this deist mindset and no ability to assert any objective truth this murder would be innocent in the eyes of the people because he felt justified in doing so.
