The categories are undefined and probably undefinable, and the debate is stated in binary terms (nature vs nurture) not by me.

So, yes, I don't find it interesting but not for the reasons you imagine.

i have a vivid imagination, but not that vivid!

it is now clearer to me why you find it uninteresting.

perhaps because you don't anticipate any novel viewpoints to emerge here?

luckily it is interesting some of us... a hoary argument for sure, but it's the journey, not the arrival.

meaning we may never know, but the conversations it enables are revealing, because it's obviously something many great minds have bent to understand, and some here have reflected quite deeply thereupon, to judge by the interest and comments.

horses for courses...
