Free will/evil/punishment
#70
RE: Free will/evil/punishment
Free will. Temptation and action towards that temptation are one side. Bad. The brain can rationalize things in the moment and you will be completely on board with that rational. You trick yourself, lie to yourself, and justify to ones self in distorted ways. Inner evil.
The ability to spot temptation, or self manipulation and rectify it either after putting thought into it, or instantaneously as in instinct, or even after the fact is the inner good. A complete lack of regard towards an outcome outwardly or in ones self is chaos. We can know that something is absolutely horrible and do nothing about it. We can observe a possible benefit and not act on it with no real justification.

So those are three sides to our will.
Is it free? Yes. Only people that are actively fooling themselves would think otherwise in order to falsely justify there life actions or the lack there of.

No offence to anyoneatall meant.
