Epigenetics plays a role but since humans take such a long time to become adults I'd say the environment in which they are raised plays much more of a role into what kind of dumbass they turn into.

Of course it is. That's why a hound dog won't herd sheep and a sheep dog won't lay around quietly and do nothing.

I wish someone would do a parody of 23 and me in which someone finds out that virtually all their relatives are in jail.
