This is true i believe people are easily influenced by what they see happening around them. And many of us have no self discipline so we always want to fit in and be like others. And i think this is the main reason why we are quick to do wrong instead of right. Like ur answer.

Answer 2

I think this is because the ways of evil are simple and sweet at times and the good ways may require to make a sacrifice and put in some work first. For example; You may end up being tempted by a prostitute and have sex with her and regret it after, While some people may think it's hard to take time and pray and read the bible.

Answer 3

Doing good takes courage. If you want to do good for the society, you need to be giving, compassionate, munificent, generous and avid. If you want to do good for yourself and your family, you need to work hard. Doing evil requires nothing but a negative and bad mindset. Evil people don't work hard to give something to the society. Hence, it is easy to do evil things. Being evil takes no efforts.
