Origin of "Personality"..
I think it depends 80% on your environment and 20% on your genetics..

I definitely agree with that... and also the company that you keep cough cough 😀 🤣 😛 I think tends to draw certain aspects out of your personality.. like.. for example.. you may not exactly be protective, but there's someone that tends to draw that aspect of you, ect, ect..
If it weren't for the gutter, my mind would be homeless.

Genetics mostly, I think. With about 20-25% of environment and into that I include parents, methods of rising a child, situation at home etc.
Anyway, check it out.

Both, but we still don't know how much is attributed to genes and how much is due to the environment. I believe in biological potentiality, that we have genes for our personality and even beliefs like religion and stuff, but it's our envirnment that would trigger these genes to be expressed or not in the individual.

I think the study of twins helped to figure it out.

Elaborating, there have been studies on twins that lived apart from each other. The traits that were identified as the same between them have been thought of as genetic ones.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twin_study
Modern twin studies have shown that almost all traits are in part influenced by genetic differences, with some characteristics showing a strong influence (e.g., height), others an intermediate level (i.e. IQ) and some more complex heritabilities, with evidence for different genes affecting different elements of the trait - for instance Autism.

Unlike Dr. Love, I can't give a percentage, but both have an affect. We must live by the structure of our goverment, but it is our enviroment that teaches us how to act.

Dr. Love is pretty much always right.

Polite bump.
I think both play a factor, though I don't really know what kind of percentage to give to each. I still think that environment plays a much bigger role than genetics. The only reason why religion still exists is because religious people get so much exposure of it in their environment. So yeah, environment is definitely important. Though genetics shouldn't be underestimated either. D:
