It only shows a tendency towards being psychopathic. Still it’s not like we can’t get to these people early. It’s quite unfair and your position would be different if you were born with these traits. It should be noted, that that study did not test genetics in isolation with environment also being a factor.

Evil is a subjective term, but I believe traits of a psychopath are heritable and studies do support this.

I don’t mean to sound disrespectful, I just think it’s naive to think that early intervention is the magic bullet in all cases.
It’s like saying all paedophiles can be reformed.
If you can point to concrete empirical evidence that proves this, I would like to see it. I’ve not seen or heard of any myself.

You know full well that cannot be done in any circumstance for any argument based on science, this kind of reasoning is only valid in mathematics.
