I was looking at it from a learning perspective. To believe in art people, math people, creative people, in the sense that you are one, or aren't in the special club, can limit a person's potential.

Sure, there are people that are better with art, math, and tend toward creativity, but isn't that a result of learning over time through efforts directed in the given subject?

I know a neuroscientist very well that would likely agree with me. :)
