Ancestry

riddlerlife · 05-03-2004, 06:14 PM

What effects does ancestry have on our general disposition, as well as our response to societal pressures? This is somewhat of a nature vs nurture question with a twist.

For example, my primary bloodlines are Scandanavian and Celtic. I view the world as an adventure, a place to breathe and live, sometimes even a place to conquer in the figurative sense.
Is this because I feel a connection and active interest in my ancestry, or because it has been "biochemically programmed" from the strong lives the Vikings and Celts lived?

Does anyone else experience/wonder this?

By the way, hello everyone, I've been reading this site for awhile, but have yet to post until now.
