explain your answer

Answer 1

Time and education would be the chief things. It takes time to accept a new thought process - and time to reject one you have adopted. Education broadens peoples understanding. In the land of the blind, the one eyed man is king.

Sin and Virtue change the nature of man. These things can either build a man way up or bring him way down. For example if you steal something small, it won't be as big a deal for you to steal more and more if this goes unchecked. Then you are more apt to be greedy, more likely to murder, to commit adultery. A virtuous man refrains from sin. Because he is honest and just he is not likely to steal even the slightest thing or tell lies.

Lastly I think travel changes the nature of a man. Seeing different cultures, eating different foods and speaking different languages cause big changes. People have to learn to adapt.

Answer 2

Piles of psychologists have determined that the nature of man is a complex enigma. Freud to Erickson had developed constantly observable stages of development and psychologists by the literal thousands migrate to sets of favored camps on aspects of the issues. Most are clear on one thing, our "innate" behavior is extremely limited, compared to most of the animal kingdom, and most of that disappears in infantcy (the most obvious usual one is the sucking made when an infant finds a nipple, one of the most amazing ones to me is the ability of an infant to swim and underwater at that, which it loses equally quickly).

Sorry, brighter brains than you will find on Yahoo Answers have long struggled to answer your question and their is no consensus on their success. The matter is clear, though, whatever the stages and mechanisms at play, the nature of man is to learn to cope with, if not master over, the world each man encounters. Each choice and decision, even deciding not to make a choice, and event is a step to changing the individual's nature as we learn and categorize what we learned to use as a decision-making tool in the future--this makes ferreting out what is or is not our nature a hard job. If you struggle with it, welcome to the club, the human race.
