The Game is Rigged

The history we are creating is a product of the choices we have made along our journey, but humans have a tendency to overestimate the influence that the choices that they make have on their history. This is driven by a desire to separate themselves from the non-human species, whose behavior we claim is hardwired in their DNA. But how valid is that perspective? The truth is that we do not have sole control over our choices, either as individuals or as groups. Freedom of choice is only an illusion. We all do what we are driven to do by forces over which we have no control.
