Under the collective delusion known as the Abrahamic religions, there not only is no ability to freely choose an action, it is impossible for such a choice to exist in the first place.
If there is nothing we make or create that God hasn’t willed to exist, there can be no free choice. If I murder a child, then God has willed that a child be murdered by me, I have no choice in the matter. At the risk of being repetitive, it is God’s will that the child be murdered and that I be the one to commit the act. Similarly, if I have the opportunity to murder a child and don’t, then God has willed it to be so. Again, I didn’t choose not to murder the child, I’m simply acting out a choice made by God, not by me. Modern science and the advent of A.I (artificial intelligence) proved that creations can make their own choice as local processes spawned from the mother process.
Take face detection for example -which is an application of A.I-. You take a picture of a face then pass it to a digital Neural Network, the network then decides "who is in the picture" based on the experience it stored before.
This literally the computer answering you with "yes the face belongs to X; or no the face doesn't belong to X"
This is a small example of a God setting his sovereign will above the will of local components like the face detection Neural Network.
This technology is everywhere even in your mobile phone (open the camera; the Neural Network application will put a green square around your face in some phones).
What recognizes your face is the slave processes loaded with Neural Networks -or humans in my example-. While God is the manufacturer of your mobile phone.
Yes; we can make a choice while obeying a higher law dominating us.
But in our case, that higher law is God that created us and created the real neural networks in our brains.
Then God didn't create everything. Glad you finally get it.

That you don't know these kind of things makes me think that you are very young, or an incel.

But it's an accumulation of points.

You weren't on the same page if you changed your views in the future, you chose different paths and that separates whole nations and whole populations not just you as a couple.
What matters is that all of you choose your own path, I did so when I disobeyed my Sunni family and that's what I plan to teach my kids -if I ever had kids-.

But I have the memory of incompatibility kicking in to my family, and I know exactly what kind of forest the child might live through when their parents are not compatible, they -the children- can lose years trying to figure out who they are -you can expect that I went through that early in my life too-.

I'm confident that it won't be a wife. As I mentioned previously, this is not how wives occur.

I don't mean "tomorrow" as in "tomorrow"; it's a metaphor.

Bingo lolly. I never imagined that I’d ever be happily married to an unusually tall Arab woman with a penchant for martial arts AND antiques.

Wife is probably a metaphor in this context too. The only thing that you're going to get by stewing around in the described thoughts is mental illness.

Know who else had trouble finding a woman? MK. At this point, I'm honestly surprised more Muslim men aren't incels.
