This post along with others I’ve seen from you cause me to think that you have delusions of grandeur. You’re not alone. Hitler was like that. Time will tell, if it already hasn’t, whether or not Trump suffers from the same. You’re in good company. 😉 Regards, MG Please don't call my religious belief...

A fellow I know compulsively sorts everyone online into either believers in a 'creator God,' or hopelessly nihilistic atheists. This same fellow has a seeming inability to read source material--even that he himself quotes or links to. Does even he have the ability to exercise free will? I can only ...

I do think there is an element of conditioning. And what goes on in your life affects choices. Some people feel they have no choice in some situations because they lack knowledge of other options. Or they can't see past perhaps a dire situation to rationalise. I think we have choice that is limited...

I can only speak for myself. I am Jesus Christ.

Your free will is impressive!

And if he doesn’t have free will, which I assume you think is the case, then he’s not responsible for having made that statement.

As far as “appearance “ is concerned I can only speak for myself. I have free will. And I’m not trying to keep up appearances. 🙂😉 If a 40 year old man tells you that he is a 19-year old girl, regardless of his appearance, would you believe him? Is he mentally ill or of sound mind? Not that it matte...

I'm glad to have you back, MG. I missed the back and forth.

Thanks!

It’s a delicate dance.

But it is worthwhile I think. I suppose I need to be careful not to say anything to offend. Even if it might be innocuous, low key, or some poor attempts at being facetious.

I will assure you, I have free will. It is for that reason that I will avoid calling you a (fill in the blank). 🤭 Instead I will wish you a good day. 🙂 So, you fully chose that dickish reply. Your inability to surprise anyone is what demonstrates your lack of agency, my friend. You, too. Take care....

It’s pretty obvious that, at least in MG’s case, there is no free will. I can’t believe that anyone would freely choose to make such a dickish reply. I will assure you, I have free will. It is for that reason that I will avoid calling you a (fill in the blank). 🤭 Instead I will wish you a good day....

I appreciate the fact that you have a particular world view and that you would consider it to be ‘progress’ to have me accept that your particular version of reality is correct. Regards, MG This is exactly why people judge you as disingenuous. By "progress" I simply meant some progress towards unde...
