But those are learned behaviours to begin with. I'm talking about the elements of our personalities that are innate - and I do believe there is a side to all of us that is unlearned.
I would definitely agree that one can "change" in the sense that they can unlearn undesirable behaviours (which is exactly what I said in the first place). But again, I don't think that changes their elementary personality. |
... which is? Just give me one elementary/innate trait, so to speak, I want to understand what you're trying to get at.

That's just a change of behaviour though... has the real person actually changed? |
If our behaviour is a part of us, and it changed, have we not changed along with it? |

| So you think that all we are as people is a sum of learned behaviours? That's pretty boring. |

it is possible for behaviour to be an act of necessity. (ie work, responsibilities and such). At the core i think it is possible to act different but still not have changed a bit.
ps this thread sucks now stop it. |

| And what does genetics do but predetermine who we are and how we'll act? |

| mental illness, addictive traits are said to be influenced by gentics, so although i don't subscribe to hal's theory it isn't completely wrong. |
