Crouwel, I like how you cite the BBC article as though it presents conclusive evidence. Sorry, but conjecture like this has been popping up in news stories since the late 1800's. In fact, the story has changed surprisinlgy little.

But what's the bottom line here? It is that we are all born with genetic predispositions. Nobody denies this. But a predisposition does not mean we are deterministically locked into a behavior or way of life. There are people born with a genetic predisposition to lie, but they don't throw up their hands and say, "This is just how I am! So that's what I'm gonna do." No, we live in a fallen world which is subject to the ravages of sin. We are all subject to it's deleterious effects. But we seek to rise above and overcome.
