Sociopaths are made, not born.
These clowns that don’t believe in souls, think they have to find a gene to explain various behaviors.
No reason “souls” cannot work in conjunction with genes. After all, at a minimum we all have several dimensions. Right off hand that would be body, mind, soul, heart and spirit. Some Orthodox go up to 11 full dimensions.

Does that mean that you would want your daughter to marry Ted Bundy’s son?
If sociopathy can be inherited in dogs, why not in humans?
Sociopaths choose to be sociopaths, no matter whether they have a genetic predisposition to be one or not.
Our nature is what we are put on earth to rise above.
I don't agree that these researchers are clowns. They are trying to understand behavior, a worthy pursuit. They do not attribute the described behavior solely to genetic influence, but rather say their data point to a genetic component.
I am not aware of any measurable psychological trait that has been shown to be free of a heritable component. The degree of influence from genetic endowment varies from one trait to another, but I have never seen a psychological trait for which the potential for such influence has been examined and proved to be zero.
