Causing comfort or discomfort...liking or not liking...sure, I can't say we can do much about that. We can still control what we do about it, though. Just as most people will avoid the sun or use sunblock, there are still some idiots that will march right out there and take a nap at noon under the sun.
Yeah, I know. I recognize that it was a pretty basic explanation and most human behavior is not always so explainable and lots of it is most definitely not logical to us

My point still stands though, and an illogical action isn't proof of free will, it just shows that some people have some gaping holes in logic in their brain imo
