I apologize. However, your claim (in your previous post) that we can "...choose or reject God, but again, that is a single choice, not an overall "free will" theme." just makes no sense. To say that the Bible, which is literally filled with instruction on how to live, teaches we only have one choice, is simply to not understand what free will is or not to understand at all what the Bible is. 
First, apology accepted and thank you.  It's always a pleasure to disagree with someone who can at least admit their mistakes.  I respect that very much.

Second, what you quoted was a response to someone else.  Godschild had said this:

Quote:...the only true will you have is choosing Christ or rejecting Him, outside that all bets are off.

What you quoted was a direct response to that and, in fact, it was quoted in the post you got my quote from, right above my response.  My response was simply an assertion that being given a single, specific choice is not "free will".  A choice is specific.  Multiple choice with only two options is as specific as it gets.  The concept of free will is a very general concept not well described by a single multiple-choice decision you are allowed to make.

So you see, it wasn't my claim, it was Godschild's claim.  So take it up with him if it doesn't make sense.  What I was actually saying there was that it didn't make sense, the same thing you just said.
Have you ever noticed all the drug commercials on TV lately?  Why is it the side effects never include penile enlargement or super powers?
Side effects may include super powers or enlarged penis which may become permanent with continued use.  Stop taking Killatol immediately and consult your doctor if you experience penis enlargement of more than 3 inches, laser vision, superhuman strength, invulnerability, the ability to explode heads with your mind or time travel.  Killatoll is not for everyone, especially those who already have convertibles or vehicles of ridiculous size to supplement penis size.
