Also, thanks for the other ideas you shared, but since those are not in any way related to evolution I'm going to ask that you start a new thread if you'd like to continue conversation on those (still interesting) other topics. Many thanks.

I am however interested in nutronjon's claims about a "blank slate", and would certainly participate in a thread discussing these claims further:

Because I am certain that the opposite is true; that we are not born as blank slates, and that recognizing this could increase the quality of life for many people.
