Free Will - Yes/No?

Well thank you   But it's my opinion that you're far more rational and erudite than me... judging by the fact that I had to type in 'define erudite' in Google 

Haha, I'd say when it comes to rationality we're more or less the same. Maybe you're a little more, maybe I'm a little more, let's just say we're about equally rational eh?

As for erudite.... personally I think you're more well read than me. I also think you're a lot more well educated than me, whilst I wouldn't say you're more intelligent -- we're both intelligent -- I would reckon that when you were my age you were more educated than I am, and probably when  you were younger than me you were more educated than I am now at 27. I'm quite poorly educated and intellectually lazy. I have trouble focusing on reading most books and I have zero qualifactions, I never finish learning anything.

I seem more erudite and well educated than I am because I tend to give my educated opinions on the few subjects that I have read up on and thought about a lot. I tend to not get involved in all the countless subjects I know fuck-all about lol.

I'd say I merely have a relatively large vocabulary. But reading a dictionary for 8 months everyday can do that to a guy, lol.

Maybe in the past and the same with the books, but I've lost all my zest for life. To be blunt, I'm just waiting to die and it's taking too long... I still keep waking up every day. I've really noticed a mental decline... I'm lucky if I can take in half the posts on here, let alone understand them... I just can't process anything like I used to. That never used to be the case... I used to be full of curiosity and excitement to learn.
