Do you believe in free will?

[Angrboda]

My "recoiling in shock in horror" was an illusion created by your subconscious. Got any evidence for it being real? Since I'm the one who supposedly exhibited those things, I'm relatively confident what you assert did not happen.

Oh, and regarding the love lost. Not per se, though I'm not as confident in your reasoning abilities as I used to be. I see evidence of flawed thinking, and while lately I've come to the conclusion that making assessments of other people on forums, for me, has been a case of me largely making up my mind without waiting long enough for sufficient number of experiences to collect to properly ground my assessment (usually resulting in my lowering my overall assessment of a person from previously thought), I'm not sure I have an answer of what I should think in the meantime. Yes, I still love you, yes I still think you're a great person (and said so last night on another forum), but your credibility as a thinker has taken a serious hit in my eyes, and I don't know that that can be repaired by love. Maybe I'm still possessed by the demons of my hurt feelings, I don't know; and I won't know until time has passed, and the normal processes of integration of new experience with old settles how I feel about you. In the meantime, I'm not blaming anyone particularly, just patiently waiting for all my thoughts and feelings to fall into place.
