3. N A T U R E: The “Nature V.S. Nurture” issue has been discussed throughout history by philosophers and scientists who have debated the role of Biology in determining who we are as people. Nature refers to what people inherit. People who argue about the nature side believe that peoples traits and personality are primarily determined by their biological makeup. Its more dominant on the physical attributes like eye color, hair color, ear size, height,and other traits. One of the hottest issues against nature theory is that there may be an existing “Gay Gene”. Which explains that gays are actually born that way. Another issue is that the criminal acts, tendency to divorce and aggressive behavior causing abuse can be justified by the “Behavioral Genes” once researchers have proven their existence.

4. N URTURE : Nurture refers to environmental factors. Supporters of Nurture side say that the environment that we live in as well as our everyday experiences determine how we behave and think. This includes the use of conditioning in order to induce a new behavior to a child, or alter an unlikely behavior shown by the child. John Watson one of the strongest psychologist who propose environmental learning as a dominating side in the nature vs.. nurture debate, once said that he can be able to train a baby randomly chosen in a group of 12 infants, to become any type of specialist Watson wants. He stated that he could train him to be such regardless of the child's potentialities, talents and race.
