"It's an interaction of environment and genetics. Our environment provides the information that the brain processes. Your mental abilities, strengths and weakness being determined by neural architecture."
So then our choices are the product of environment and genetics? But then wouldn't our choices be dictated by what created that environment and genetics? Still puts us on the level of automatons. Still disregards that part of us which transcends physical laws, including environment and genetics.
What do you respond to if not your environment. Your environment being composed of everything around you, family, friends, strangers, work, play, animals, plants, objects, events, all being you in relation to your environment and the information that makes up your whole life and existence. Of course it's an interaction.
