We are actors who make up our own scripts and direct the action and students who are learning about life 24/7 and everything we do or say or think no matter good or bad big or small contributes positively to that process.
So genetics play no role in who a person is to become? I'm sorry, but you're disagreeing with what modern biology and psychology are discovering then. We have basic temperments that are genetically determined. Some people are determined to be violent, some are determined to be thoughtful, some are determined to be sluts, etc. Genetics isn't everything, but it is one of the major players.
