Genes and inherited aptitudes, nature/nuture and how you're raised, etc. can't "make" you do anything; they just give you information with a certain slant to it. But there's always other information around if you look for it. That's where behaviorist theories fall short for me, there's so much going on, so much interaction that there's no way one could know all the elements as to why someone did something. Too individual. Besides, I may be crazy but I'm not stupid!
