So i just stumbled across an interesting question and i would like to hear somone elses thoughts on this. Gay people are born with a sexual preference for men. Thats the way their brains are wired. Killers are born with their brains wired to have psychopathic tendencies. Does this mean that in a way, our brains and who we are was encoded in us at birth? of coarse there are other factors that play into this, such as the people you meet and the other things that will affect you in life to make you who you are, but theoretically, if there was a way to know how ever single person's brain works and how it will react to different situations, would we in turn be able to calculate the future assuming we take other variables into consideration such as weather, animals, etc.

i dont see it as genetics or enviorment, i see it as genetics AND enviorment. That being said the question still remains do we have any influence at all or is everything up to our genetics and the environment around us?

you are mistaken. studies have proven that killers are born with psychopathic instincts. while there is still controversy over whether gays are born with it or not, almost everyone agrees that killers are born killers. It has to do with neural circuitry and its just an alternate form of brain function. They are genetically born with lower empathy levels.
