Abstract
Practically, the nurture and nature model is considered to be the way of framing
discussions based on the causes of genetic research papers (Bates et al., 2018). Environmental
and social theories of crime have been a dominant factor in public policy and criminology
(Coccia, 2017). Presently, research of genetic variation based on antisocial and aggressive
behavior has got more attention in the media. This article explores the idea of faith and
personality development from the perspective of nature and nurture. The stories of Pam and
Tamara reflects upon the power of nurture and nature. It has been observed that both Tamara and
Pam, with their unique psychological and physiological DNA, experienced a change in their faith
throughout their lifespan. The paper reveals the fact that the life of Pam and Tamara has been a
gloomy existence. Therefore, it can be said that neither nurture not nature could ultimately define
the destiny of an individual.
