This isn't really connected to this weeks class discussions but I have been thinking about human nature and its connection to psychology. Human nature, by definition, is the disposition and traits of humans. I found it interesting that in this class as well as my psych class we will attempt to understand the nature of human nature. What interests me is the ways in which the subject of human nature can be thought about, the philosophers approach versus the psychologists. Since psychology for the most part came from ideas and thoughts from past philosophers it is curious as to which group is more qualified to "figure out" the nature of human nature.

So I guess the question is...who is more qualified to figure out the nature of human nature? The psychologists or the philosophers? More so, are the two groups so closely linked that it would matter?
