6 So the L ORD said to Cain, “Why are you angry? And why has your countenance fallen? 7 “If you do well, will you not be accepted? And if you do not do well, sin lies at the door. And its desire is for you, but you should rule over it.”

Sigmund Freud – man is helpless in the face of biological urges.

B. F. Skinner - there is no free will. Human behavior is determined by conditioning. We respond to what reduces pain and increases pleasure.

Sam Harris - free will is an illusion, nothing other than electrical interference in your brain.

Change is in the choices we make

6 So the L ORD said to Cain, “Why are you angry? And why has your countenance fallen? 7 “If you do well, will you not be accepted? And if you do not do well, sin lies at the door. And its desire is for you, but you should rule over it.” If you do well the right results will come- you will be accepted.

And its desire is for you, but you should rule over it.” Your choice to not do well – watch out, you have a real enemy.
