"The Nature-Nurture Resolution" is an article by Glenn Borchardt published on 1 December 2025 on The Scientific Worldview.
Answering a reader who held that nurture matters far more than nature, Borchardt restates univironmental determinism: what happens to a thing is determined by both its internal makeup and its surroundings, neither being dispensable. His illustration is a home run, which requires both ball and bat. He connects the point to cosmology, noting that a finite universe of the Big Bang has no outside — and so, on this account, no nurture at all.
