I will choose a path that’s clear.
If you choose not to decide
You still have made a choice
Freewill

Hey Stupid,
Me calling you stupid was a choice, free will at work, got it?
2nd post on this thread. That’s encouraging.
Thinking themselves wise, they become fools.
Yeah? Well, He’s an idiot
A person can become a new creature. In fact, they can become born again.
LOL!
RE: Yeah? Well, He’s an idiot
LOL, did you say that out of your own ‘free will’? Or did the chemicals in your brain impel you to say it? LMAO !!
I read this and got a headache.
That was not my freewill so...he must be right?
Through Jesus Christ.
Is that so?! He’s not God or a god!
People know what lies are, but they believe them anyway. And when some one writes a book saying that is OK, you can be assured that the book will get lots of press.
I can argue both sides of this debate.
My first question would be; We know placebo’s work. How do they work if consciousness does not influence the final result?
Our free will is limited to the attributes available at the level or frequency of consciousness that we have attained.
Through Jesus Christ.
Yes. Nothing is more documented in ancient history than the life of Jesus. Yet, these know-it-all professors know little about him.
The abuse of Science to try and ease the guilt of sin, will not work. It will still be there under all the lies.
Yeah. But judging people for right wing views is still allowed
In all my reading and listening to various religions’ viewpoints, I only recall one woman saying God made a mistake when he allowed free will.
I mutter so many times “well, thanks to free will——
that serial killer abducted little children”
“those knockout game teens got away with it again—witnesses shut up”
or “the man who pushed the woman onto the subway tracks to get killed ran away.”
The human race commit so much evil they are again as in the time of Noah. IMO
A priest who wrote a book about his experiences as one of the hundreds of exorcists said the average person got the wrong idea from such things as the movie The Exorcist. “They think the power of Satan is overwhelmingly enormous and strong and an equal opponent to the goodness of God. But Satan is a small part of God’s creation and nowhere near being equal.”
Hope he was right.
Starting around 1965, the favored explanations began to change radically. A person’s environment was considered less and less important in causing his behavior.Just as with Freudianism, behaviorism’s main idea was counterintuitive (that is, it ran against common sense). The behaviorists insisted that all of a person’s behavior was determined only by his lifelong history of rewards and punishments. Actions that had been rewarded (a smile, for example, that had brought a caress) were likely to be repeated, and actions that had been punished were likely to be suppressed. And that was it.
