>> It's the hypothesis supported by most scientists in the field. Which you are not.

I know little about genetics, I will agree. I have seen no indication your understanding of science generally approaches mine so if you want to have a pissing contest we can do that.

But what I do know about science is that the number of people who support a hypothesis plus five bucks will buy you a cup of coffee. It just doesn't matter.

As you know, science is not conducted by consensus. You prove it. You don't. The best evidence, studies of identical twins, continues to suggest some genetic component and some environmental component. That is not proof of either of these two hypotheses.

Liberal scientists (you're a liberal, but not a scientist), we know, never let science get in their way of their politics. We see it all over the place.
