Enneagram Type 4 Board Archive Yeah, stop exploding just because someone doesn't agree with you. ntPosted by Tiggy on June 10, 2001 at 16:31:42: In Reply to: Re: FOR THE LOVE OF ALL THAT'S HOLY posted by straw on June 10, 2001 at 10:30:29: : I understand your point of view........and I believe that "genetics" could have a huge influence on our "personality". However, their are many other interesting arguments about this......For instance....about 80% of the world's population believes that we all have a true "self" devoid of "personality" in the wordly sense....A true essence.....This might upset you, as this discussion seems to, but for a lot of people it isn't a joke, or silly...that we are born in a sense connected to all...and then we develop self through separating from that all by the teachings we recieve.....You might disagree, but the theory is valid....as valid as your own....Indeed many enneagram experts say that the personality of a person does not show up until the age of four.....Anyway...It's just an idea, nothing meant to incense anyone into expending all of their energy.........Just trying to figure it all out , and yes I know I never will.....Peace
