Does nature shape our personalities more than nurture?
I want to say neither, we are responsible for who we decide to become at the end of the day so to say it’s due to nature or nurture just sounds like it’s removing the responsibility and accountability for who we decide to become.
* I would say it’s almost entirely nurture.

* Environment and childhood Life Script programming rather?
* Considering how damaging nurture can be. The answer seems obvious
* If you choose a higher power (Nature) it will heal the lack of nurture.
* Flaws you want to address in your personality which have been laid down through nurture can be altered through self awareness and hard work on one self, the flaws laid down through nature cannot.
* Nature determines our genetic patterns; our bodies. Experience determines our neurological patterns; our minds. Just as water determines the path roots take and light determines the path branches take; our experiences determine the paths our neurons take. Babies take 1–2 months to learn how to perceive colors because that is a matter of learning from experience.
