Do we actually have control over our lives?

I don't really have an opinion either way. I actually believe I control myself, but I like to contemplate and consider these ideas.

Scientific point of view 

Our parents create us with their genes and DNA. We are born with genes, DNA and a brain that we did not choose, but it defines us. We are raised by two parents in an environment of their choosing. They choose what to feed, expose, and teach. At a young age we learn by example. Blindly following our parents, friends and elders actions. Our personality is not our choice. We have to be the way we are. If you choose to change that is your personality thus you are the same. The voice in our head speaks its mind. But what influences that voice? Is it our genetics? Our environment? experiences? Probably a combination of all three. Do genetics have everything to do with us. Are we biologically programmed to think a certain way? Can every action be traced back to genetics? 

Religious

First off no one get mad. Actually I don't care, call me out. Except for you Nelson. No rude comments from you please. I'm just expressing some thoughts I have had. Doesn't necessarily mean I believe in them. 

Well this one to me is a bit easier to explain. So God knows everything that has happened and that will ever happen correct? Well if he does he knows all of our actions that we will ever make. If he already knows what we're going to do, how do we have a choice? 

Also this kind of goes with the scientific point of view but God created man, and me individually. He made my mind and body. He made me how I am; my personality, strengths, weaknesses, everything! He also put me into a certain family and environment. All of my being was decided without my consent! 

Maybe this makes no sense in words but in my head its a finished crossword puzzle.
