Chocolate chip cookies never killed nobody, man.

Edit: Well okay, they might've killed somebody, but I'm pretty sure they're not guilty of genocide.

This whole argument is bullshit. The environment shapes human beings, NO SHIT. It still doesn't mean that every human is as strongly affected by this shaping, and if you really believe there are no cases that don't seem to be shaped very much at all, you should probably visit different parts of town once in a while.

You are right about the statistic stuff.
But even what you call almost not at all shaped is heavily shaped. Sure people may not hold the views upheld as normative by the "leading fraction" of their peers/state/culture. But when growing up people take up a set of core believes and habits, pattern recognition and problem solving, etc. (*) that - assuming that they have an internal logic - will shape what they believe. There's also statistically some who do differ to others here, but they either become institutionalized or great mathematicians. Sometimes both.
That is what is meant with shaped - I assume you understood it more directly (on of those cultural habits is, unfortunately, never to clarify statements with several meanings in an argument). Still that doesn't mean "everything" or that we could make silly laws about culture -> action, but outright denying that you are influenced makes you look like you are unable to reflect about those things.

(*) Arguably a lot of that is genetically hardwired or something. Still makes little difference - you are still influenced by your parents.

Funny you. Telling others to amuse you, while you are the real comedian.

Oops I read Marcel Mauss as Levi-Strauss for some reason. And just to nitpick again, none of their works are used in any scientific discipline as far as I know. Psychology is not a scientific discipline, no more than sociology is. They have had a huge impact on the humanities, that's for sure though.

They do try to look the part now. Doing statistics and shit.

Also I meant cheating as in looking answers on my exam, but I'm sure everybody understood. It came out hilarous anyway.

This thread was better two pages ago.

We need to talk about social sciences more often.

I understand that perfectly fine, but I still disagree with you, and it will be damn hard to prove your claims.

We were discussing whether a Wiener sausage is still a Wiener sausage if it contains horse meat. This question quite divided the participants, and discussion got a little heated. Thankfully it has calmed down now, so please don't put new coals on the fire.

There is no real evidence that during ww2 gas chambers were used to kill millions of people in chocolate chip cookie concentration camps.

Correct. Even if you are influenced to reject everything that they stand for, you are still influenced.

Not to mention the logistics of killing off 6 million people while your country is fighting a war on two fronts. The math doesn't add up.
