I noticed this board was a bit inactive, so I decided to put up this question here!

So, the debate is Nature vs Nurture

I'll include an excerpt from the internet regarding the main point of the debate below,


Quote:
  • Nature refers to all of the genes and hereditary factors that influence who we are—from our physical appearance to our personality characteristics.

  • Nurture refers to all the environmental variables that impact who we are, including our early childhood experiences, how we were raised, our social relationships, and our surrounding culture.


So the debate is mainly as to which factor plays the more important part in our behavior and growth. Is our personality effected more by our genes or by our upbringing?

Some philosophers such as Platos suggested that particular elements are caused by genes and occur naturally without environmental effects. However, other philosophers seem to agree with the other opinion.

Personally, My opinion on this matter would be that initially our personality is controlled by Nature, especially before one explores the world. Once he/she grows, the environmental factor comes into play and may or may not effect the person in positive/negative way. E.g. I am of the opinion that no child is born evil, however the environmental effects can shape his/her personality.

I'd be interested to see what you guys think about this Smile

My mother has passed away in last december and I became lonely in my home as my brothers are working away. She was great and we had fun at our little home. She was at her 49. Anyways it was a big loss for me.
After that this pandemic has taken life of many loved ones. It is around five lakh death now.
Now I want to know why people are dying?  Is there anything like soul in our body? If so what is it made of?  Is it just air as we say last breath?

I am going to list some arguments that religious or just believers put forward.

  1. How would have this universe appeared out of nowhere, God created this universe
  2. God existed even before this universe's creation and he is the ultimate being.
My arguments:

Let me start by stating that everything my opinion is very scientifical as I believe that science provides a more compelling argument in this case.

As an enthusiast in Science, nothing can be more interesting for me to find out why, how and, dare I say, who created this universe.

I did my research and found that even the Big Bang Theory (the current theory that proves the start of the universe) doesn't properly explain what or even who triggered the... bang. Well, that's because it doesn't have to. It is proven by Quantum Mechanics.

If we see on a microscopic level, like a sub-atomic level, protons appear and disappear out of nowhere. A proton that is at a spot might have disappeared to appear somewhere else. The study of this is called Quantum Mechanics

Keeping this in mind if we go back in time when the universe was as small as a proton. So it is possible that nothing could have triggered the creation of the universe, more specifically the Big Bang.

Also, there was no time before the Big Bang, let me tell you how.
Imagine a black hole in space and a clock. Assume that the clock doesn't get sucked into the black hole by its gravitational pull. If we bring the clock closer to the black hole, we will observe the clock's speed slowing down. This will keep happening before the clock stops completely. Now keeping this into account imagine our universe before the Big Bang. It was just a giant singularity.

In other words, there was no time before the Big Bang so God would have had to time to create it in the first place.

Now before you say that God is above all of this and is not affected by time whatsoever, let me tell you this:

The stuff that you just read is among the many basic Laws of Nature that no creature, being can break otherwise they won't be called 'laws'.

I rest my argument here. Looking forward to your opinions.
