Is Instinct really our heart?

I still stick to the point which I said in the former blog, i.e. the term we name heart, really doesn't exist in heart, But I never said it doesn't exist and let me make that very clear. Actually the term we name heart actually part of brain. As a bulid up ploy, I m here dealing with what heart not really is. Is instinct really our heart? I really feel it is not!
As I spoke about Instincts, let me explain what science tells about Instincts. Instincts are the inherent inclination of a living organism toward a particular behavior. When you touch a hot object, your hands tend to retract. To be fair, we don't need heart for doing it. As science says, you don't even need mind to retract your hands. So Instincts doesn't have any role to play with heart or vice versa. According to me Instincts are something genetic. Let us say a baby touches a hot object, it obviously retracts. It might not touch the object again, does it actually mean it won't touch any unknown heated body! Not at all. So the baby is learning that the body he/she touched is hot, so we should not touch it again. But who tells the baby we should not touch any hot objects, it will burn us!? It's where gene comes in!
As I spoke about Gene, let me explain what science tells about gene. Gene is unit of heredity of any living organism. It is the book where every initial thing about you has been written, and of course, it can be re-written, and it also has some blank pages where you can write some more of your interest. I shall deal more about gene and what it did, doing and will do for our human race in my future blogs.
Ciao for now!
