There is no free will. I am who I am because I've been shaped that way, not because I choose to be. I conform in many ways, we all do. If we don't then we are rude, impolite and arrogant. I'm not like a great deal of people, I have ideals and opinions that differ from others. You could even say I'm 'unique', but when you break it down you could trace each quality, skill, or flaw back to my past, to society's past. Every little thing I've seen or heard makes me who I am today, and this is the same for every person. Nobody is better than any body else, even if they think they are (and I often do think this), because essentially we are all made up of the same basic elements.
I just wanted to say this, even though it's been said before (certainly by various pyschologists and sociologists). Nothing is entirely original, least of all myself.
