Why Are So Many Great Artists Also Terrible People?

Recently, a renowned writer was found to have hurt several women, some of whom say that we now need to get rid of his books. Indeed, there have been acclaimed artists throughout history who have created masterpieces while exhibiting terrible behavior in their personal lives. One has nothing to do with the other. People can be great artists who create the most beautiful and inspirational art about the loftiest of matters, and exhibit terrible behavior in their personal lives. It is unsurprising, because a person includes an entire world of qualities, positive and negative. As we head into the future, it is important to understand that we are headed toward recognition of our evil, i.e. how egoistic and divisive drives within us do not let us connect positively to each other, and such awareness will lead us to the conclusion that we will have to change. We were created with an egoistic nature, where we each prioritize self-benefit over benefiting others, in order to become aware of our opposite nature to the good one that exists in nature as a whole, and reach a sincere desire to invert our nature into the good one, an altruistic desire to benefit others. Doing so will invert our perception of the world as we know it as we would experience life harmoniously and peacefully.
