If we are a product of our environment and circumstances as you say, and human nature is inherently "bad" in some way as you infer, then evil doesn't exist. Just bad choices. If Jesus died for our sins so we could be forgiven, then essentially there is no more wrong doing.

It isn't human nature that's bad. It's the things that people are tempted to do because of human nature that could make them a bad person.

Unlike animals who are driven by pure instinct, humans are driven by emotions and higher cognitive functions that animals don't have. You can decide whether to act on your thoughts and instincts or decide not to. That's called free will. Animals do not have that same power or higher cognitive function. They act purely on instinct and self preservation. There's exceptions to that such as a dog saving their owners life but for the most part they live the way they're biologically programmed to live.

Does that make sense?

Not at all.

Well then I don't know what to tell you. You should try reading through the Bible and maybe you'll understand a little better.

It sounds like you have an overinflated ego which causes you to have a narrow minded understanding of life.

Hallucinogenic plants such as psilocybin mushrooms or peyote can knock your ego down a few notches and help open up your mind so you can understand things better from a new perspective.
