Sinful Believers Wearing Their Sins

[freedomfromforum]

Your own free will? It is most likely that "your will" like mine, and most decent people, has been subconsciously shaped to agree with the social model over millions of years of evolution. Your 'sense' of where that comes from requires no more than your biological agreement with your current evolutionary composition.

I fixed that for you.

So you are rejecting free will so much as to say that we have been shaped and have trouble breaking from the chemicals and social patterns? But where does free will come in, then? You said earlier that apologizing as well as forgiveness are a choice, but not if we only do it because we are shaped to do it. But if we are wired to be "good members of the community" why do so many still act outside of the chemical and social shaping?

Excellent question. Evolution in process, is my answer.

Also, sorry i keep messing up the quotes. I am trying to trim them, but I think I am taking out the important parts.

Yes, this will eventually cause you to misquote someone - be cautious.
