"don't you think that some of this stuff, which you say is learned from experience, is innate? i think there is innate knowledge in everyone, but i also agree that certain experiences bring about a different knowledge...we had a big discussion in my psychology class about nature vs. nuture...this argument reminds me of that...."
Hmm...I really want to discuss more about this, Anonymous (being anonymous is cool, not knocking that). Are we talking about innate knowledge, or innate ideas? There is a difference. Knowledge means you know if from the start, but ideas must be triggered in some way. What would be your example?
Please respond, I’m not trying to make a mockery of you, only looking to possibly have my mind changed.

also, I'm on myspace if you want to speak directly...which is fine (if so, no further comments will be posted by you, only what I've learned)

Okay..we will debate this, but i definitely have to come up with the right way to say it, so i will get back to you...
one more thing...we have to decide if we are going to discuss innate knowledge or ideas...you last paragraph reads: My friends, hear this: knowledge comes from diverse places, different experiences and long lives of diverging occurrence. You build character this way. People gain respect and wisdom through experience. It’s not something you’re born with; it’s something you’re made into.
