The free will question is a question of superiority and in this sense contradicts nature, but pleases man's nature. Of course the evolution of our brains, our thinking organ, our senses, our perception organs, and all the rest of us, did not only start when man had a free view and access to the new born. Our ability to think and to love clearly is rooted deeper than this. Yet becoming independent of the mother's chemistry, digesting one's own food, breathing one's own air, is a big step into the world of being free to decide which path to take. We hopefully become mature enough to become aware of the patterns we are operating on, we insert a break that has to be longer than 3 seconds, then we decide again. Manipulating this process is the big business.

How do you explain away the hallucinations occurring among the psychotics , and these very thoughts and beliefs are cured with medicines. Delusions also are thoughts and beliefs , yet they get cured with medicines. Moods lead to differing behaviors and these can be manipulated by drugs. What about hormones ? Are these spiritual or are they given birth by you, i.e. your soul. Yet these hormones are responsible for much physical and psychological activity.

Did not god give man free will? Why would a god who created life and created man create man just to blindly follow a script? What is the purpose? As far as choice being preceded by chemical activity, I do not think that that is correct. I think all choice is preceded by "thought". First we sense something physical or we have an intuition, then we think, then like you say our body gets ready to act by changing our chemistry, and then and only then can we actually act. How can we prove if we really have free will and that we are not merely programmed to follow a script? Being able to think/love is good enough proof for me. Can you be programmed to think/love? I do not think so. -- --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups ""Minds Eye"" group.
