there is an interesting looking documentary on bbc2 tonight (for those who have access). its going to be looking at the cutting edge of genetic and neuroscience to find out what forms our personalities and if they can be changed.

i wonder if they will announce that there is some sort of spiritual soul with different levels of inherited sin that forms our personality?

Your wondering about that is both genetically predetermined and a sin at the same time. 🙂

Ideas form our personalities which is then reflected in our behavior, Christ understood this 2000 years ago and now we need so called, 'cutting edge', (one wonders what its cutting, butter?) science to tell us what we have known all along, well, I dunno if I can respect that. Christian teaching can and does help millions of people to form a complete metamorphosis of personality through the application of Biblical principles, fact. I announce the death of materialism! Materialism is dead!

wow!!!! you managed to sum up every aspect of the complicated world of neuroscience in one paragraph!! we can stop wasting money on cat scan machines and investing money trying to understand and fix brain damage and mental disorders now that you and j.c. have it wrapped up. great work robbie, you can rest assured knowing that if you are in a car accident and have a head trauma the doctors can just use the bible and the wise words of the j'man 2000 years ago to sort you out........because we have learnt nothing since, have we???


edit: watch the doc tonight and see how material the human personality really is.

you did not mention anything but personality and indeed, developing spirituality can help the adherent overcome all manner of ills related to the personality. Materialism is dead! Sorry but I am meditating tonight and cannot worship the God of science.

What does anything you are talking about have to do with materialism? 'Materialism' means what exactly, according to you?

We know that it is possible to change behaviour.

Not for the most part sexual behavior. You should know that full well.

For instance, they castrate rapists and all that happens is they turn violent. They change but not for the better.

And the 'pray away the gay' deal. Total BULL SHYTE.

You don't seem to agree with anything I say. You really got a serious personality disorder. Maybe some time in Hellfire would do you good.
