I think so. Look at murder. Its human nature to kill, but it doesn't seem to apply to human behavior. Not too many people purposely kill. But the human population, as a whole, will always spit out individuals who have it in them to want to kill, or are driven to kill for whatever reason.

Existentialists hold that human behavior defines human nature.
I am inclined to agree. If I describe how humans behave, I am describing their nature. There is no difference, the terms are virtually synonymous.

actually there is not any big difference in human nature and human behavior...
not a very flattering statement i'm sure, but true nonetheless.

Not much I just believe people try to separat themselves from nature, and that's why we think or actions are different to those of other organisms.
