wedrifid might well be making the point that your genes determine your choice, via your decision theory. i.e. Your genes give you EDT, and then EDT makes you not chew gum. I'm not sure how that affects the argument though.
The claim is generally that EDT chooses not to chew gum.
Thanks, fixed.
You're saying EDT causes you not to chew gum because cancer gives you EDT? Where does the gum appear in the equation?
