He said I like what's in her genes


We're finding out more and more that genes govern many things, not just our eye color or whether or not we go bald, but how we behave and how we feel about many things.

As Mike said could be Nature verse Nurture in there.

I do know that they have done MRI's on cold blooded killers and some of them, a small percentage, but some have ZERO capacity for remorse. Completely unable to feel bad for the murders. And basicly say if let out they would do it again, because it doesnt bother them the way it does MOST people like 99%.

So now there is a whole new legal research going on, and some lawyers are already using this data to help clear their clients.

If they are incapable of stopping themselves from killing someone, how can we put them in jail?

My answer is to make sure somebody else doesnt get killed.

But it does bring the whole free will concept to light. Physics tells us free will does exist, for a damaged brain it probably doesnt matter
