Well this sounds like the same problem we're having in the eSports thread. What is free will?
I won't argue that people have a predilection toward acting one way or another. I'd agree. But the idea that we can't overthrow that just won't jive with my view of the world. I'm guessing I'm not understanding you here, but I assume you'd agree with that.
As an example. I like to sleep a lot more than I like to work. Still, I get up at 6 every day to go to work and forego an extra 3 hours of sleep. I'm designed to want to sleep, but by virture of my wanting to eat and having a Super Ego, I get up and I go to work.
Are we talking about different things?
