It's a thorn in the side of alot of things (particularly contentions that surround the issue while maintaining some sort of fate), and it's nigh impossible to demonstrate...but it's no problem at all for atheism or atheists one way or another. It doesn't matter, to me.. whether or not we have a free will.
Most people, believer or not..are some sort of compatibalist. There are issues with that way of conceptualizing free will, but meh. You..otoh, are a loon..a person who thinks his free will...whatever that's supposed to be to you..might cause an earthquake..if you aren't careful around puppies.
What, what, what?
1) When I ever said that I am not interested in FW?
2) I simply believe in karma that is why I use my FW carefully.
As I would use a knife only to cut some food or any useful task and not to hurt somebody I also use my FW for my own progress and not for my own regress.
Nothing really complicate as you put it Khem.
I appreciate that you've freely willed yourself up to human status from your prior state as a cabbage, and wish you well at becoming a schnauser or whatever the fuck it is you think comes after being a particularly dense human being.
