    This was a good video and the science is solid. I like the "bee analogy". I also think that nature and nurture shapes one's identity in concert. I used to be a hardliner when it came to people simply "choosing" what they want to be, but with further evidence being shown, I now know that it isn't just that simple. People in general are "wired" (genes/epigenetics) to be a certain way. Having said that, I think that a person's environment is what ultimately ends up "tipping the scales" for better or for worse. Just my opinion formulated out of the many stories I have heard from various interviews, and in coming to know different people's background. Not to mention my own personality and how I evolved to be the person I am today at 39yrs of age.

    It seems people are constantly trying to find support for the nurture argument. We don't want to accept the limitations of our parents. Even if nurture can make us into Einsteins how much control do we really have over it? By the time we realize that changes need to be made the mold has already been cast. And as a parent how can we model or teach what we do not know.

      Some dear people had a child withdrawn and unreachable to others, and some person with better(not) things to do(much better things)-(it is an disagreement on it's own), spent time playing with the child.
      Two weeks - eye contact.
      Two months- the whole alphabet(though there was 'prior learning'..
      And in a year...(all could've been well- if only people believed).
      So... it took five years to catch up...
      exposure to nature and play...
      happiness... those are the main things i blame for the change... constructive change...
      If only more people would believe:
      PLAY SAVED THE CHILD.
      -did it change the genes?
      How do our understanding work?
      -hehe...
      Do we want to know.
      Or do we want to enjoy the misteries??

    What happened if you cloned a man (hypothetically) he leaves the lab and chooses to board the train and the clone leaves the lab an hour later, after the train departed, and walked into a barn witnessing a farmer hang himself? Will these two people approach life differently? One resorts to booze the other blissfully becomes a businessman? One gets liver disease and the other a wife and kids? Is that nature?

      Since perfectly cloning a human mind is impossible, there's no way to answer that question

    how can you seperate social life and your year of birth? Then say one dictates your life? If the mannings grew up in india they wouldnt have even played or had the social network. And when a social network dictates success how can that naturally ever be natural? All social networks in physical terms that actually exist are determined by monetary Ends. At what point is money natural?

    Nurture, for they are genetically the same but have significantly different lives due to their own experiences.
