Has human nature changed or has our view of human changed? How can the Enlightenment (Locke, Hume, and Rousseau) hold such a different view of human nature than its predecessors? And what about our views of human nature today? Do human beings have reason, spirit, and body or are they undifferentiated? Is anthropology a human construct itself?
Human culture and society have changed greatly over the centuries. As they change, the ways we interact changes. Naturally, our understanding of ourselves changes. The "Wired, amped" generation is socialized very differently from the television generation of baby boomers, even if some of the latter use some of the technology.
In truth, our relationship to Jesus Christ causes us to confront our human nature. What is sin? What does redemption mean? What is true freedom, especially in Christ?
