Essay / The potential framework of human nature in the life of...
As humans, we have a thirst for knowledge. We long for truth and understanding. There is a need to discover what exactly human beings are capable of doing: jumping high, running fast, acquiring hidden knowledge, or even perceiving potential distinctions in ourselves as individuals and as a race. The ambition to discover the last of these abilities is evident in research carried out today as well as in research carried out over the last few centuries, notably beginning in the time of Charles Darwin. Charles Darwin, the "Father of Evolution", inadvertently laid the foundation not only for life and science as we know it today, but also for the concept of human nature and questions related to its potential framework. After Darwin's discoveries, many other researchers claimed the role of genes and heritability in nature. Some researchers affirm this role of genetics in human nature, calling it necessary for the development of a complete understanding, while others deny the role of genetics in human nature entirely, claiming that it constitutes an obstacle to scientific and social progress. However, the novel The Life of Pi by Yann Martel and the play Copenhagen by Michael Frayn show that human nature can be based not only on genetics but also on external factors. But what are the real differences, if any, between the impact of genetics and the impact of culture on humans? Although contemporary research indicates that the primary source of human nature is genetics alone, the true source of our nature should be attributed to both genetics and culture, which work together to shape human nature in a way so complex that one aspect cannot influence us without the other. .Many researchers divide the foundations of human nature...... middle of article ......question of the source of human nature, the answer is literally found within us as well as all around us : the evolution of life. The discoveries made by Darwin, Williams and Mendel have only sparked the imagination of the thousands of hidden answers found in the strange sequence we call life. In the field of science, new theories and changes have never been easy to introduce, but the times demand a commitment to discover what truly makes us so unique as human beings. Understanding our complex nature will open the door to a whole new area of scientific study and perhaps change everything we know. Advances in genetics and behavioral biology may eventually converge, allowing us to see the true correspondence between human nature and its origins. Until this progress becomes clear, we all face the same daunting task: discovering the seemingly unfound element..
