I think all the choices people make on a daily basis are what make up your identity. It's hard to just suddenly go "I wanna be different", but all of our little choices build up to give us our identities. There are some events we can't choose that impact us also, especially when we're little, but as we get older we have more and more chances to make choices to determine who we become.

Identity constricts true expression.
No, an identity is the opinions other people have about you, though you do play some part in other people's opinions about you, you do not--can not--choose your identity.

i've got in no way theory-approximately atheism or theism as a decision. i think of the undertaking on R&S between the believers and nonbelievers is the habit of the two communities. this question is exciting because of the fact i've got in no way appeared on the undertaking in those words. i think of that accepting the assumption of a God is an adventure that's so very own, so distinctive from guy or woman to guy or woman that of direction it won't be able to be in comparison to data based ideals like the earth is around or the thought of evolution. C.S. Lewis is one former atheist i will think of of who had some form of non secular transformation that confident him of the lifestyles of God. it is not a remember of will, or intelligence. i don't see atheists as "undesirable" human beings, i don't comprehend for confident that they are going to omit out on something interior the afterlife, if there is one. I quite tend to have faith that there is an afterlife, yet I will not be totally confident of that till it happens. i don't think of there's a Christian in lifestyles who's a hundred% particular of heaven or hell. yet, I do see your factor and actual comprehend that the theory in a God or gods is in basic terms subjective, and not subject to any attempt.

Somewhat, you can modify your nature but really can't change what you are truly like. I think people's identies are shaped by their genetics, upbringing, environment.
