What is wrong with FW?
#11
RE: What is wrong with FW?
Lack of a coherent, testable definition.

I came up with a thought experiment, where reality as it now stands is copied an infinite number of times, and then all the copies run independently from that point. Do I make the same choices for the rest of my life in every copy? If so, I clearly have no agency. I'm 100% predictable and just feel like I have agency.

If not, then that's a minimum requirement for me to have agency, but possibly not sufficient. It could still just be that my decisions are a function of random variables. Maybe that's what we call agency anyhow.
Feel free to send me a private message.

Lil rik has been with us since he was a baby troll. We have been feeding him and he is quite harmless. He keeps inside his threads. The topics go all over the place yeah.

This tjread will go trough an NDEphase after this one and shot like that.

In the end, I am not sure if really troll or that Wacky

Actually knowing God is not an easy task.

It is true that the teacher will show you the way to get there but at the same time it is you that got to do the hard work.
A bit like when you want to get a degree or you want to get a black belt in martial arts.

The teacher will teach you but you are the one who got to struggle so in a way may be as hard as to bang the head on the wall except that banging the head will produce only negative results while engage in spirituality will produce very good result.

Thanks anyway for you point.
Even demented points like yours Banging Head On Desk may have some glimmer of sanity.  Smile

God or not God FREE WILL still affect our lives in the good or the bad so why atheists dislike to hear about it so much?  Huh

I'm usually pretty good at divining your meaning, regardless of how ridiculous it is, but I haven't a clue what you're on about here. Is this a prelude to something?

Why is it religious idiots like you continually try to distance themselves from their religions?

I'd like to buy a clue.  What specifically do you have in mind when you say "free will"?

Why o why did I even open this. It's not even fun to laugh at any more.
I don't have an anger problem, I have an idiot problem.

I do not hate to read about free will. I simply find it a very boring topic. I voluntarily clicked on this post. Whether or not that was an illusion is not verifiable and of no concern of mine.
God thinks it's fun to confuse primates. Larsen's God!

Well, "theists believ[ing] in religions" includes theists who belong to a religion with only one member, such as your religion, affectionally called Little "I'm Right and Everyone Else is Wrong" Rik Theology™.
