sorry for the ill comparison. i think this idea is called materialism along with other names like determinism. i prefer to think of it as materialism because initially it was the interaction of material things in us that gave birth to thought and emotion. after that i think it's an interaction between four things that create our experience. (outside material and non-material stimuli interacting with inside material and non-material things). but my point is the choice to go to taco bell or McDonalds wouldn't really be "your choice"
