Odeon and I are making jokes, because I said it was funny when people psychoanalyze god; now we're also psychoanalyzing jesus.

Now there's a guy who would benefit from therapy. Can you imagine the issues? An authoritarian dad and an absent mum. No peers to play with. Dad always busy working.

Always found it interesting the bible omits Jesus' adolescence and young adult years completely, possibly an extremely troubled and rebellious youth, best forgoten.

Probably got in with a bad crowd and terrorised his immediate neighbourhood.

No I don't.  :hahaha:

yea you do  :yarly:

No I don't, and telling me I do wont change it. I don't have free will to believe something I don't believe, just like I can't disbelieve something I do believe. That's the thing with believing something, the believing part. It's nonsense to tell me otherwise.  :tard:

Free will is not a factual given, but a faith-based concept.

In science, the whole idea is rickety, because of how much of human behaviour that is driven by all kinds of pre existing impulses (many of them hormonal, ALL of them automatic). A complete understanding of human behavioral mechanics renders the idea of "free will" almost moot. Free will becomes "whatever your circumstances allow your will to approach"

More likely the opposite. Made this point not long ago with Calandale. There's no free will in the bible. The bible is easier interpreted as god to be sovereign, the creator of both good and evil, with the believers being chosen, and god intentionally sending a delusion to those who don't believe.

It doesn't have to be Christian to be faith-based.

By faith I mean you have to believe in free will. It's not like believing in something tangible, like the moon, or cars, "free will" is fleety and difficult to pinpoint.

We tend to see a large selection of options as evidence of free will, yet everyone picks a single option each time they act, that option is normally picked without much consideration, it simply follows your usual pattern, which in turn is a result of a series of interactions with ones environment. As your options decrease, so does the freedom of your will :D
If I tie someone to a chair, their freedom is limited and their will is powerless. They're gonna have to adjust their will to something they can achieve :]
I'm rambling now, point is, "free will" is like "art" or "meaning of life", it is a philosophical concept
