Nature vs. Nurture: Talent or Hard Work? in Philosophy ·
Here we go again... everything said is technically true... but the real point of this debate is that "talented" people can pull the same thing off with way less practice and effort 😁

I don't know... for him, it really was like that 🙂

funky Daemon ironhawk36 said:It’s not about talent or practice. It’s just habit and inclination... 👍

I don't buy it... 😁

I listen to music, and I pick up an instrument once in a while... but don't ask me to sing. I've got zero ear for it. 😉 I can read sheet music and memorize melodies just fine, but without an ear for it, I'm limited to whatever I can grind out through sheer practice... then there's my old neighbor, guy barely finished fourth grade... he’s got the natural ear though. 👍 He only needs to hear a song once to play it back perfectly... 👍

I don't buy the idea that hard work and training are enough... they'll get you far, sure, but they can't touch raw talent. Back when I was younger, I was an insanely fast sprinter—no training, no nothing... just pure speed. I was the fastest guy I ever knew 🙂 I even went head-to-head against pro athletes 😉
you just can't wrap your heads around it 😢

You'll settle down once you grow up... 👍
Check... I guess I'm just clueless 😁 but what on earth is "white washing"? 😬

What's the point of changing handles? Especially when they've been around forever, got thousands of posts, and everyone knows them by the old one? 🙄

He's just annoyed because people keep addressing him as a woman.🙂

crimsonhound80 said:How exactly do they... "develop." !!??
If one kid picks up good habits from their peers (according to your theory), why does another kid pick up bad ones under the exact same circumstances !!??

There's genetics—heredity—and then there's physical damage to neural structures in the brain that can trigger maladaptive behavior, or biochemical imbalances that develop while the child is still in the womb... etc. 😎

Give me one kid with "bad" genes and one with "good" ones... isolate them from their environment and raise them identically -> they'll both end up selfless and unselfish—to whatever degree... It works the other way too: put them in a toxic environment and both kids will turn out malicious, selfish, and egotistical.

Like I said—genes determine a predisposition toward something (like alcoholism or depression), but all those things are triggered by external factors first 😉

Does that rule apply to other objects too? 🙂

Kate Scott67 said:Maybe this is pointless to ask, but maybe hearing it from someone else will hit harder than my own thoughts... I've been dealing with Illbestion for a year now. I know it's all just Psychology at the end of the day, but after a short break, I'm right back in those waters again..
What's your take on Illbestion and people struggling with it in general? thanks..


Like someone already suggested—get professional help. Talk to family and people who can actually support you through this. That's really the only way 👍

ironhawk36 said:If I recall correctly, the topic is whether people are BORN evil.

People are BORN incapable of anything beyond basic survival instincts—breathing, swallowing... 😉 Kids become "selfish and egoistic" because that's how they develop—observing other kids or absorbing it from parental "inputs."
