The C's gave the various percentages of psychopaths in the latest session, however some things are still unclear for me. So, here are some adapted versions of some of my original questions as well as a working hypothesis to help further our understanding of the issue. Here's the working hypothesis, with some questions interspersed:
Psychopathy is a genetic disorder.
All types of psychopathy share the same fundamental genetic taint. "Psychopathy" is monogenic.
Variations are caused by additional genetic/environmental factors. Variations are polygenic.
(Graphically, psychopathy is a circle, in which are separate circles for essential, skirtoidal, schizoidal, etc. psychopathies)
OR
Variations of psychopathy, while sharing some similar behavioral/affective traits, do not share an underlying genetic taint.
Variations are caused by different genes. All types are uniquely monogenic.
(Graphically, all types of psychopathy are separate circles sharing no overarching factor, except perhaps one that represents OP genes.)
OR
Some psychopathies are polygenic while others are monogenic.
For example, sadism could to a result of psychopathic gene(s) or it could have a separate cause that combines with said gene(s) to have a greater effect.
Question: Are there environmental factors that can "turn on" the psychopathic gene(s), or is it always expressed regardless of environment?
All psychopaths are OPs. Not all OPs are psychopaths.
"Soul genetics" mitigates the expression of psychopathy gene(s).
Characteropathy in OPs gives expression to latent personality characteristics.
Characteropathy can reveal or exaggerate previously hidden psychopathic tendencies.
Question: Do the physical traumas which produce characteropathy only produce personality changes in OPs?
Question: What percentage of the world population is characteropathic?
Question: What percentage of psychopaths are also characteropathic?
The Cs said that schizoidia was "more or less" psychopathy. Does this mean that the figures given for psychopathy include schizoids and other psychopthies? If so:
Question: What percentage of the world's population are what we would classify as "essential psychopaths"?
The answer to the above somewhat depends on which above working hypothesis is correct.
If not:
Question: What percentage of the word's population are psychopathic (including schizoids, skirtoids, asthenics, and all other types of psychopathy)?
Question: Did essential psychopathy exist before 12,500 years ago? If so, did the Paleolithic peoples simply know how to deal with it? If not, what were the results of the previous mutations?
