Nature and Nurture Debate

My Topic:
Between nature and nurture, Which one is more important role in forming human behavior and characteristic?

What I hope to learn from this source:
I want to find out more information about my topic. Moreover, I want to develop my thoughts or opinion. 

Notes:
1. Nature : The coding of genes in each cell in us humans determine the different traits that we have, more dominantly on the physical attributes. However, it is still not known whether the more abstract attributes like personality, intelligence, sexual orientation.

2. Nature : 
(1) One of the hottest issues against nature theory is that there may be an existing "gay gene", which explains that gays are actually born that way. 

(2) Another issue is that the criminal acts, tendency to divorce and aggressive behavior causing abuse can be justified by the "behavioral genes" once the researchers have proven their existence.

3. Nurture : The nurture theory holds that genetic influence over abstract traits may exist; however, the environmental factors are the real origins of our behavior. This includes the use of conditioning in order to induce a new behavior to a child, or alter an unlikely behavior being shown by the child.

4. Nurture : According to John Watson, one of the strongest psychologists who propose environmental learning as a dominating side in the nature vs nurture debate, once said that he can be able to train a baby randomly chosen in a group of 12 infants, to become any type of specialist Watson wants. He stated that he could train him to be such regardless of the child's potentialities, talents and race.


Final Thoughts:

One of the oldest arguments in the history of psychology is the Nature versus Nurture debate. Each of these sides have good points that it's really hard to decide whether a person's development is predisposed in his DNA, or a majority of it is influenced by this life experiences and his environment. Which do you think plays more important role in shaping human behavior or characteristic?
