Over the past two or three decades, there have been literally hundreds of scientific studies indicating that aggression is not essentially innate and that violent behavior is influenced by a variety of biological, social, situational, and environmental factors. <span style=\"color: #f5364d;\">Perhaps the most comprehensive statement on the latest research was summarized in the 1986 Seville Statement on Violence<\/span> that was drawn up and signed by twenty top scientists from around the world. In that statement, they of course acknowledged that violent behavior does occur, but they categorically stated that it is scientifically incorrect to say that we have an inherited tendency to make war or act violently. That behavior is not genetically programmed into human nature. They said that even though we have the neural apparatus to act violently, that behavior isn\u2019t automatically activated. There\u2019s nothing in our neurophysiology that compels us to act violently. In examining the subject of human nature, most researchers in the field currently feel that fundamentally we have the potential to develop into gentle, caring people or violent, aggressive people; the impulse that gets emphasized is largely a matter of training.<\/span><\/h6><\/blockquote><p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_btn title=\"See The Seville Statement on Violence\" style=\"flat\" color=\"danger\"
