No, actually they're hard-coded to work the way they do.

Instinct and genetic code are not mutually exclusive.

You mean science?

No, I did not mean science. Science cannot determine if a being is free or not. At least not yet.

What's your point here? Are you saying apparent freedom is inefficient?

No, I did not say that.

Just cause anarchy to you is a certain way doesn't mean it is that way. You need facts and evidence that back up your view if you want to convince anyone.

So do you.

So when some guy tries to rob a bank and says he'll shoot you if you move, is it simply your belief (that you will be killed if you move), or the very real threat of someone holding a gun to your head that keeps you from moving. Your trivializing actions to beliefs that are internal to us, when those beliefs are usually formed by experience external to us.

Apples and oranges. I may not be able to stop a bullet with my mind, but as long as I can think freely, I am free.

So, then, the medicine has no role? No, that's absurd. So according to you, then, the role of medcine is to enable our bodies to heal themselves. But if the medicine's role is to enable our body to heal itself, it is essentially healing us.

I did not say that. My point was that we could decide to use other "inspiration", as we evolve our understanding of the body, to promote healing. So too with government and society.
