I am pretty sure that babies are born with basic knowledge, because they can hear, breathe, and make noises upon entering the outside world. They know that making noise is communication. They have capabilities and predispositions, and already have a personality.

I hope not! You can tell by the Latin wording that this discussion has been going on for a long time. However, I enjoy a world where some people are more musical than others, some better story tellers. I do not like a world where some people are better overall than others, so I do not believe in racism, etc. Everything is both "nature" and "nurture," so if you are not a born musician or storyteller, hard work can make you a reasonable facsimile.

Yes, I believe so. Our ideas and beliefs are largely affect by environment and experiences, they are what shape us into individuals. Take twins separated at birth and raised in different environments, they usually vary greatly.

no modern psychology has shown we come to the world with certain predispositions.

No, when we were born we had biological structures and predispositions.
