Heh a little bit of a cop out Pat, but there is some truth in what you say.
This frm Dictioanry.com Will: 1. the faculty of conscious and especially of deliberate action; the power of control the mind has over its own actions: the freedom of the will. 2. power of choosing one's own actions: to have a strong or a weak will. 3. the act or process of using or asserting one's choice; volition: My hands are obedient to my will. 4. wish or desire: to submit against one's will. I think that we people like us use the word will in the context of this question, then the above is what we automaticly assume, and correctly too I guess. The rest then if looked at in the same manor should be easy for you to figure Pat! ;¬) On 6 Oct, 17:16, Pat <[email protected]> wrote: > On 6 Oct, 15:51, Lee <[email protected]> wrote: > > > Is it possible to force somebody to an action against their will? > > First, define 'their will', then define 'force' and 'action' and, > while we're at it, 'against' could have levels of meaning too.
