This is the statement:
"When humans are born, they are undefined beings."
This is my response:
Basically, I completely agree with this statement. Babies are born without any knowledge whatsoever, and their background has little to do with who they are as a human being, or where they will go in life. It is what they learn and observe as they grow, that 'defines' what a person is. There is unlimited potential in every person that is born, but this potential closes up as the human is taught what is valuable, how to do things, and when grown, eventually defines itself by what he or she picked up from others. Characteristics (color of eyes, skin, gender, etc) do not determine what kind of a human this person will become when older. Human's are born undefined; it is the surroundings and its people that guide to discover his or her identity
Danny, I agree with what you are saying here. Humans aren't born with any definition as to who they are as a person because as you said, they have no knowledge of anything when they are born. The people and relationships that they are surrounded by is what defines them in my opinion.
