What is most important in our development, nature or nuture? If we cloned Adolf Hitler and had him live in..?

Greenland under an assumed name in the year 2045, would his clone also be a mass murderer?What is most important in our development, nature or nuture? If we cloned Adolf Hitler and had him live in..?
No, Hitler was shaped by his experiences. Early in life, he was a painter. He even tried to get into a prestigious art school, but was told that he just wasn't good enough for them. Also, he fought in the first world war and saw the senselessness with which foot soldiers were thrown into the meat grinder. Along with other things, these events led to lingering bitterness, which, because of the way he'd been raised to believe, he focused on Jews. If he were raised in a loving, nurturing environment, he would be a completely different person.What is most important in our development, nature or nuture? If we cloned Adolf Hitler and had him live in..?
Definitly not. All people are born with the ability to choose between wrong and right and each child is born innocent. In his new environment, hitler would not be brought up with the same ideas or by the same parents or in the same society that was dangerous and facist and moulded by the defeat after WW1. He would adopt new understandings, new teachings, new parents and upbringing, and since greenland is pretty much war-less, the society would be relativly healthy in moulding him.


I recommend you watch the film: The boys from Brazil; as this film depicts a story based on the idea of cloned hitler children and it is also a very good film.
Hitler wasn't some crazy murder who just wanted to kill Jews. He was an immensely intelligent person who, by means of being oppressed in his own country, lashed out against the people who had their foot on his face. Jewish people were in control of a country that didn't belong to them. It wasn't their fault, and they didn't ask for Germany, they asked for a home, and since Germany had just been beaten in WWI and was a crap hole of a country, the Jews were put there to make it better. But the German people are strong and very deeply rooted in their countries heritage so they didn't appreciate Jewish people coming in and all of a sudden having more rights than the people who built the country in the first place. If it wasn't for the overly harsh terms of the Treaty of Versailles, WWII never would have happened. As far as your question goes, they are both equally important.
Interesting question, without an over bearing and abusive father and an over protective mother, would he have turned out to be the megolomaniac and sexual deviant that he was? I doubt he would've shown the same mental instability that he developed. what's my basis? none, just common sense, but then again, i'm not a neuroscientist or psychiatrist.
Madness is madness. Nurture cannot change mental instability.
They are both important. Cloning doesn't mean anything. Do identical twins have the exact same temperament???
