This Wednesday morning I started researching some information about the science of behavior. I found a great website that had an educational tutorial. I is really well done and informative. I was a very good review and I felt like I relearned some stuff that I already knew better. But, then it went south. I began to encounter what appears to be a political agenda and a bias. The main principle that I disagreed with was the idea that behavior does not originate in people. That behavior is initiated in the environment. That their is no point in trying to change a person's mind. That there is no "miracle mind" just a locus of variables, hereditary traits, history of conditioning, and current environment.

I felt that this view fails to consider the nature of memory. That the psyche is the history of conditioning, history of experiences, and a complex accumulation of logic.
