The Debate of By: Jordan Coffman and Lorenzo Sebastiani

The Topic of Nature  Nature is the belief that behavioral characteristics are purely due to the genes that you are born with.

The Pros of Nature  It is said that a child being born from two intelligent people will yield similar intelligence within the child.  Traits such as generosity, common sense, passion and critical thinking will be present in a child born from one, or both parents with those same traits.

The Cons…  Due to genetic inheritance, you could be born mentally and/or physically disabled.  Inappropriate, rude and vulgar behavior can be, in a way, justified because those traits were inherited from the parents.  Genetic arguments might be used to excuse criminal acts, or to justify things such as divorce.

Twins Nature usually wins the “Twin” debate for this subject. Twins grown apart have been found to be much more similar than twins grown together, even if they were raised completely different.

Why Does Nature Matter?  Everyone is born with certain traits, bad or good, that you get from your parents.  Being raised right or wrong has little significance on the type of personality you have compared to what you’re born with.

Linda and Doreen  As babies they were separated into two different households.  35 years later they were reunited for a study to decide if twins are more influenced by nature or nurture.  Linda stayed with her mom finished high school and got a education.  Doreen stayed with a adoptive family, she was pregnant by seventeen and never finished high school.

The Test Results  Linda and Doreen went through a serious of questions to decide if the were more influenced by nature or nurture.  They both liked darker colors perfumes they are scared of heights they don’t drink. This proves that their genes make people who they are.

Nature Wins  Nature wins because your genes influence who you are.  Linda and Doreen had never met each other and they not only look alike but they act, like, and hate the same things.
