in the context of this passage, why do people do bad things? Are these things done purposefully or as a consequence of another motivation? of revenge by sir francis bacon

Answer and Explanation:

According to the text, people do bad things to acquire, profit, pleasure, honor and other good and positive feelings, that put them in a comfortable position with themselves. According to the author, people do not do evil for evil, but do evil because they want to promote a good feeling in their souls, or to raise their status in some way.

These bad things are done through consequence, as most of them are done out of revenge. Revenge is an act that is the result of another bad action, that is, it is a consequence and a natural desire of the human being, but it should be limited and discouraged whenever possible.
