Still mistaking the illusion of free will with actual free will there. Just because we feel like making choices, and acting on them, does not mean there aren't a billion deterministic reasons why you did so.
Quote:Actually, the Bible teaches that we ALL freely do and will reject God, if left to our own wills. The ones who choose God, God has intervened, so now they freely choose Him. In other words, no choice can be made without bias. Basically, we choose what we desire. We are slaves to our desires. God simply changes the desire in some.
Bible is irrelevant to this discussion unless you can prove it is all true.

If you’re going to watch tele, you should watch Scooby Doo. That show was so cool because every time there’s a church with a ghoul, or a ghost in a school. They looked beneath the mask and what was inside?
