Worrying Gene

A Bloggin MinuteThey (scientist's) say they have identified a gene in Maori (and some other ethnic groups) that can make them more violent and aggressive and more likely to become addicted to harmful substances. They have dubbed it the "Warrior Gene".
God calls this worrying gene SIN and the only remedy for it is for the sinner to accept Jesus Christ as Lord and Saviour over their whole life.
He was sacrificed on the Cross for not only Maori sinners but all peoples of the world, because everyone has the propensity to murder, maim, tell lies be addicted to gambling or drugs... Everyone can have their known or as yet, uncovered sins forgiven and their slate wiped clean.

I think you are missing the point or are in denial in regards to the problem with maori violence in new zealand (just look at the prisons)
‘God calls this worrying gene SIN’. Sounds to me like a man made interpretation.
The sin is not the gene, the sin is the lack of responsibility maori are taking in teaching their people and families to take responsibility by dealing with issues such as violence, alcohol/drug abuse, and gambling. Dealing with this problem is only highlighted by the fact that Maori are more susceptible because of this warrior gene.
Saying that the only remedy for it is for the sinner to accept jesus christ as lord and saviour over their whole life is an unnecessary hypothesis and shows me your lack of understanding of what the scientist's are trying to say. How many barbarous atrocities have been committed to families/children in the name of god.
Violence is a conscious choice so it is time to stop blaming the gene and act on the real issue.
