Well I'm not going to go furher on the matter cos I'll completely derail the thread. I already created a thread ages ago called 'Why I don't believe in free will' or something like that, so I obviously disagree.

So either take it there or create a fresh thread if you wish to discuss it more, or contact me some other way. Because I don't want to derail this thread.

If you wish, we could even do it just by PM I guess.

Anyway, we should get back on topic. As I said, I'm particularly fond of Dan Dennett's response when he had had a heart attack, and his Christian friends announced that they were praying for him. I like how he resisted the urge to ask them "Did you also sacrifice a goat?" lol Tongue
