Summary荀子的性惡論歷來頗具爭議,尤其宋明以來多秉持著二程「只一句性惡,大
     本已失」以及朱熹「不須理會荀卿,且理會孟子性善」的觀點。近年來荀子的地
     位與價值逐漸提升,學者多不再以性惡論非難之,且多認為荀子所謂的性惡論,
     並非「人性本惡」,「性惡」在荀子的論證中只是個綜合命題而非分析命題,人應
     該是具有內在價值根源的。然而,如傅斯年所言,性字在先秦時期都是以生字為
     本訓,也就是「生之謂性」是約定俗成的定義。對於性作為「人生而本有」的意
     義上,孟荀之間是沒有差別的,兩者的不同的關鍵在於:人生而本有的是什麼?
     前者為四端之心,而後者為自然欲望。那麼「性」字本身應該即具「本有」之義,
     那麼將「性惡」與「本惡」分為二橛似乎沒有必要。且如果說孟子的性善論可以
     稱之為人性本善,但麼沒有理由荀子的性惡論不能理解為人性本惡。歷來學者多
     以荀子所謂的自然欲望情性本身不為惡,「順是」才會形成惡,故不得稱之為「本
     惡」。然而,孟子的四端本身不也不是善嗎?那也只是善的根源。況且相對於儒
     家的禮義規範為「善」,那自然的欲望就是一種「惡」。但在荀子的脈絡中,善與
     惡並非如基督宗教有如此強烈的正邪意涵,那只是一種在禮義脈絡中,以「正理
     平治」與否為判準的一個論述,是相對於孟子性善論,並極欲凸出禮義師法重要
     性的一個論述策論。故言荀子道人性本惡而無礙於其作為儒家的理想與價值。
