Instruction of our youth provides not only intellectual guidance, but moral and ethical guidance. There are those who believe all potential humans are equal, and each individual can learn with similar ability. To a point this is true, but our personalities are shaped by our genetics, environment, inhibitions, preferences and desires. I think people believe we all are blank slates, but there has to be some type of base to make the imprint on. Two people raised in the exact same conditions will react differently to those conditions. It's the balance of reality that seems to be at play here. (See future write-ups on balance as well as waves). For instance, photons that were presented two holes to pass through seem to be dicated by the ones before it. If one chose one hole, the other chose the other hole. This to me is a natural check of keeping balance within nature. Two people presented the exact same circumstances will create slightly varying to completely different personalities. It's the lack of sameness that matters.
These differences shine light on our preferences towards the smarter, more attractive, more athletic; which is a preordained biological cue to better our species. We look for continuation of our own, however humans many times place special interest in the weak of our species. We value all life forms, allowing to over look nature to help the quality of life for others. Instead of labeling this as not-survival-of-the-fittest, perhaps this is a quality that makes humnanity unique. We provide for those that are less fortunate than us. At the same time, we often look away when the less fortunate are taken advantage of by fate. Our natural reaction to let nature take its course?
