Look it up. You seem to have plenty of time.
Superciliousness is neither necessary nor sufficient to gain your point
Are you making this personal again? I am not the subject of discussion. Stay on the topics. Can you do that?
And recall my earlier quote from Pascal.
Yes, thank you, the heart is a pump. The quote is idiotic.
YOU: Look it up. You seem to have plenty of time.
I asked if you claimed Free Will for your choices, and you replied with the non-sequitur "It's called reason."
So, define your terms.

YOU:Are you making this personal again? I am not the subject of discussion. Stay on the topics. Can you do that?
I am. I used the word "your" point as a synonym for "one's" -- a possessive.
But I applied it to you since you don't appear to be arguing anyone *else's* point on this thread...
And the word superciliousness was used to characterize the brief answer to my question, where you used a buzzword "reason" in a condescending tone .
Oh, and as far as making it personal -- if you insist on this, then don't include personal comments about how much time ("plenty") I seem to have, followed by a sneer ("look it up") that I should rectify a defect in your postings. Merely answering "it's called reason" is something of a non-sequitur to the question of whether you yourself claim to possess free-will: so asking you to define your terms is, and remains, legitimate, and in good faith.
Cheers!
