I dont buy the violence gene theory. We are all born with violent genes, otherwise none of use would be here. Environment determines what traits are strengthened or weakened.
To me using genetics to explain behavior is partly a witch hunt, much like has been trying to find a genetic marker for mental illness.
Um. Not sure what to say here.
Finding a genetic marker for mental illness is one aspect of our attempt to understand the biology of mental illness, in the pursuit of more effective and targeted treatments for the millions of people suffering through anxiety, depression, schizophrenia, etc.
