And you have the gall to call others narrow minded.

We are the sum total of our experiences. You  are and I am.... How
else do you accounty for the person you have turned into? Did youo
learn how to be the person you are from a book? Did you listen to a
tape?? Perhaps you believe that each of us grown into the person we
are through some sort of genetic encoding.

Try reading about cloning sometime. Not one "expert" believes that a
human being could clone a duplicate of themselves. Why?? Because they
could NEVER hope to duplicate all the experiuences that go into making
up the personality.

If what you claim is true then we could place a newborn in a white
room devoid of any sound or visual influence.... and never allow that
child any outside contact.... and that child would choose what kind of
adult they would be. Absurd.
