VERY intersting question I have...THIS WILL PICK YOUR BRAIN! Entertaining!!?

Question

Okay so I was wondering what does peoples personalities come from (your brain or your soul).. I mean we are all not perfect humans, we have intrusive thoughts,negative thoughts,disturbing thoughts etc(about even our closest ones). Some thoughts even automatic we catch ourselves thinking odd things...and sometimes feel bad for having that little video/image in our head.so my question is what defines who we really are if not those thoughts....

What defines if we are good/bad people...if we all make mistakes and have instrusive/bad thoughts at times.
Are we who we are because of our brain chemistry...(neurotransmiters etc...genes etc)
or are we who we are because of our soul inside our bodies...
let me pick your brain a bit:
Lets say your depressed...your doctor will aruge that you need to take more serotonin,provide you eigther anti depressents to stimulate your brain..or increase your intake of folic acid,vitamin B,Vitamin C and serotonin. However, if you go to a priest he will tell you to pray,to meditate,to try to clense your soul,to tell yourself positive affirmations etc.

Like people who kill others...do they have a bad soul..or is there brain chemistry just out of whack..or both

Can you have a good soul and bad thoughts/

My question to you yahoo answer people...is
1. What do you think about what I just said?

2. Have you ever had weird thought/perverted random thoughts/awful..intrusive thoughts...Can you please share.(with strangers/loved ones?)

Answer 1

I thought about what you just said...an interesting read. I believe, that the good/bad in people could possibly stem from their nurturing. It is said that most children by the age of 4/5 have already fully developed in their own personalities. Therefore, to me, their nurturing they received will be the outcome good/bad. However, I also believe their diet/s also equally important to the chemical balance/imbalance as well, which can alter mood/behaviors.

2. Yes I can say I have had various types of thoughts mostly in challenging circumstances, but have never acted upon them. I have questioned, where, they did stem from however, and addressed them responsibly. Thanks for asking.
