Nature vs Nurture

This post is actually relevant to the previous post but I was thinking more of things which are linked to the mind - mental disease..., I guess it could also link up with the freewill debate!

I believe in Freewill!
Ravi Zacharias put it like this: If you are making the truth claim that you are a robot, then you are raising above the bondage of total subjectivity. The moment you make a truth claim, you are violating determinism.

I think the nature vs nurture debate is really important:

Both have there dangers -

Nature: 

If you are the way you are because of your genetics, then who can condemn a pedophile? 

The only thing left is to say: for the benefit of society, even though we understand that it is not your fault, we must lock you up, even though we do not see you as evil, just a victim of the genes you have. 

If we get it wrong: 

Though someone holds responsibility for their actions, they are cleared!

Nurture:

We then have responsibility for what happens. We can change things. We control our own life to some extent. 

We can still blame people for their actions. 

If we get it wrong:

We blame someone though he was not responsible for his actions

Anyway, be careful in your judgement, making mistakes can have great consequences. Before judging someone about anything, it might be safe to assume that it could always be a bit of both. Losing the balance causes harm.
