Is every individual really all that unique?

Or there are definite patterns and strong similarities between certain people?

Answer:
That makes our thumb marks a signature for those who can write. Therefore, every individual is different even with twins.
What really makes everybody so unique is all of their experiences are so different.
Yes and no.
You can argue that everyone is unique since scientifically, each human being has a unique DNA code which is unlike any other DNA code that any other human has ever possesed or ever will, which is pretty incredible when you think about it.
However, you can also categorize people by race, personality, physical attributes, etc, to place people into similar categories. Really all people are more similar than disimilar- we all have the same desires, wants, needs when it comes down to it.
And at the same time we are all special and unique. So again- yes and no!
Not necessarily. Identical twins (there are about eight million in this world and every day some one thousand are born) are not unique - at least genetically.
everyoen is unique but they can be similar in one way btu differnt in tohers (example: identical twins)
In looking at Maslow's hierarchy of needs - our few motives - one does come away with the feeling that we all are driven by the same desires. In my limited experience, such is not the case. Indeed, we all brand ourselves differently. One beautiful commonality,though is that very few of us are motivated by money. Isn't that great?
Even snowflakes are all unique,none exactly the same,but similar ,only by looks,but not exact. So we are all different,in mind,especially .The mind ,is never ending,random,and creative. Even identical twins,they look alike,but are so different,in the way the thoughts are processed.
While there may be strong similarities in appearance and body types of people, I do believe that every individual is truly unique. Just like your DNA.no 2 are exactly alike. People are unique because of their opinions, beliefs, values,personalities, goals, dreams, life experiences, etc. I do believe we are unique.
Eventhough everybody is different, personalities have common factors. That's the reason why personality can be described and future acions be predicted. Statistical measures and psychometrics in many instances can have more predictive potency than most blood test. In sinthesis the answer is more yes than no, people while unique share many common personality traits.
We are all very close to being the same person because we are only six degrees of separation from Kevin Bacon.
The word used in the question is 'every individual' and not
'every one'. The term 'individual' refers to mental characteristics.

"Our two minds . One is an act of the emotional
mind, the other of the rational mind. In a very real
sense we have two minds, one that thinks and one that
feels" (Daniel Goleman, Emotional Intelligence,
Bloomsbury Publishing, London, 1996, page 8).

The Upanishads speak of five components or faculties
of mind. The working pattern of each of these faculties
is the same for all humans. How 'every one' uses them
to arrive at conclusion is unique to 'individuals'. That way,
we are as different and as unique as our finger prints -
no two are alike.
Everyone is very uniqe. Whether its a birthday, experience, personality, facial features, friends, enemies, love, IQ, where u live, what kind of books, or movies ur into or just plain ur eye colour! NO-One in the entire world has an identical set of eyes .Now this is TRUE! There are definant differences between every person, just think how many differences there can be!
every single person is unique no matter what. even twins are unique they might look same but their genes are different from each other to make them special or unique
Yes, every individual is unique. We are all different from each other even we have some similarities.
Well, since we have the genetic info. of both parents and no ltwo lives are the same, I'd say yes. People might have similarities that dominate their lives, but they're still individual.
I am not only "one in a million", but am absolutely the only one of my kind. I am completely unique in every way... JUST LIKE EVERYBODY ELSE!

;)
idk the answer

but at one time, me and my friend had almost all the same preferences, likes, dislikes, favorites, etc.
If everyone is unique then is that not the same thing as everyone being the same as unique becomes the norm
