Say What?

I am by no stretch of the imagination ever going to be a geneticist.  But I find this article completely bewildering. Scientists are claiming to have isolated the gene responsible for a love of the sea.  

I mean, really?

Genetic determinism is really a bizarre thing to me.  I don't but into it at all - particularly efforts like this to link genes to predilections or preferences.   Apparently this brings some people a sense of comfort.  I don't know.  

 

What did you think of this article?
