Brain, Soul and Resiliency are critical subjects to cover.  Yes we may be born into a different environment but is upto us to make the choices including whom do we listen to and not. Within my belief God also places individuals in our lives so either we reject or not what they are saying. My INNATE traits is INFj yes I will always be wired that way, it will never change. We may fluctuate into the other trait but comes back to what you were wired since the begining.


And what decides those choices? Us? So you think people willingly choose to be wicked? When they know the consequences? I don't think so. A person's entire perspective of the world is limited to ...well...their perspective. Their doing what they think is the best thing to do.

I don't know what INFj is.

If our environment & our innate traits aren't the only factors of personality, what else is there?

And you didn't answer the question. Would you be a seriel killer?

A. I talked about the choices way before these posts.....
B. I answered that is upto us to make the choices of becoming a killer or not.

C. Humans are yes a product of their environments. Early on we learn rudimentary skills, taught by associating with our parents and other humans. We then use this and make choices to filter information coming into our sensors, and build upon this filter, until we develop a personality. We are constantly building upon, and updating this filter. This constant updating of this filter is a function which aids in our survival. Resiliency and Adaptability as well as our connection with our sound Doctrine.

D. When Adam sinned it brought sin into the human race like a genetic virus. All mankind after Adam was born into sinfulness. I don't know if you can define it as wickedness, but I guess you can. We are born into wickedness- and there is an age of accountability that we bestow when we are able to make our own decisions.

We are much like the animals without God. We look to our own selfish needs and wants. Without God in our lives we become self absorbed, but with God we can become concerned with others more than ourselves.

But I think this is what I am are trying to get to...."I think it depends on the parents love for their child. The more love and attention they receive during and after pregnancy, will help nurture the child spiritually as they grow older. Have you noticed, most problem children get no love or attention from their household."

 

Jay what do you think about Wickedness?
