  1. @ Strange "Culture and upbringing". These are influencing our morals and values, yes, but you're still not telling where this is situated in the human body! Where are culture and upbringing values situated, in our DNA? In our brains? "How do you know that Arab populations are less mixed than others? Evidence?" I meant that their morals don't change that much. They marry with people that have already the same morals. I never heard of a muslim marrying a German womabn, or an Asian. Well of course sometimes it might happen, but in Europe this happens more often. "Some other dialects, certainly. Not all. There is as much variation between Arabic languages/dialects as there is between Romance languages in Europe." Ok this is VERY wrong. I've spoken with many Arab speaking people, and they can understand EVERY Arab dialect there is. So yes, there are dialects, but the apple doesn't fall far from the tree. So language is an indicator of the alinea above, what I just tried to explain.
  2. Does that mean that DNA doesn't tell us who and how we are/think, only codes for how we look and how we're built from inside? What 'codes' for our morals and values, then? Delta1212, you're saying "Our genes can have some impact on behavior", can you give an example? Impact, affect..it's not the same as really 'to code for' something. Maybe the source for our morals and value lies not in DNA, but in our brain, or am I way off track here?
  3. Four elliptical galaxies at once! I didn't even know more than two galaxies can be involved. Does this only happen to eliptical galaxies, or can f.i. 3 spiral galaxies also merge at the same time? Or how about 2 spiral galaxies, and 1 elliptical one??
  4. Is it possible for a wolf to pee, just because he has to, and not mark its territory by it?
  5. Have there even been two non-spiral galaxies collided with each other?
  6. So...genes only code for how we look? ...and not morals/values of groups of people?
  7. All right, but some characteristics belong to people with the same religion or nationality. I understand the mixtures in the past, but then you better study those that didn't mix that much, f.i. Arabs. In all arab countries people understand oher Arab dialects, and they also marry orhers from the same muslim religion, so you better study them than Chinese, perhaps, because of less variety and mixture. I just like to know if some genes (on/off) are found in people with the same morals, or maybe no links at all are found yet.
  8. Can specific genes be related to nationalities? Our DNA is our identity, and because people from the same country/culture/religion are more related to each other, maybe this is also the case with genes being switched on or off? So do (of course never 100%) most of the Dutch, or Africans, or Chinese, carry the same gene that's switched on or off?
