Your "Free" Will is Not Free

Not to mention research more or less shows we DON'T always make the same descision under nerarly identical circumstances.

I mean, if you eat at the same restraunt weekly, you don't order the same food every week do you?

Sometimes you just want something different.

Why?  There really isn't a proper reason behaviorly for this to be so.

Yes there is. Eating the same food over and over will eventually cause you to not enjoy it as much as you used to, which is not desirable. Eating pasta every day just because it's your favorite food makes no sense because  that's not the best way to enjoy your pasta. Once again, it comes down to maximizing profits.

Except that's not a logical conclusion under a "no free will" scenario.

Additionally, that doesn't bear out when it comes to scientific testing.

If you study the testing of behavior you'll actually find peoples choices tend to be quite variable, even when in the exact same circumstances, and that often times they knowingly pick things less preferable.

Essentially i'd suggest picking up a couple psychology courses or a psychology book.
