Choice is one of those words that really get me goin'. Like Rush says, "I will choose free will." What a lyric. What an idea.
Do we have a choice because it is there, or is it there because we choose? We may never know, and what functional difference does it make anyway? This much I know for sure and certain: Free will defines consciousness AND full realization of self. The big difference between me and a rock is the dynamic choices I get to make. If there is Quality, and it is the source of everything, there is also a mind to comprehend Quality and move toward it by choice. I experience the reality of that choice in the same moment I experience the reality of the "something" to choose from. Here is what I think is most interesting of all. You can choose consciousness. You can choose free will. You can also choose lack of consciousness and lack of free will. Thus if you choose to believe that you are a predestined robot conforming to laws of cause and effect with no such "illusion" as free will ... then you are 100% correct and there is no way to argue the point. You can choose total determinism and know that your position is unassailable. Congratulations. have fun with that. ... any points along this dynamic continuum that don't choose to evolve toward Quality... well they just don't get it :) -- ------------ The self is a point along a dynamic continuum, evolving toward Quality by Choice. ------------ Moq_Discuss mailing list Listinfo, Unsubscribing etc. http://lists.moqtalk.org/listinfo.cgi/moq_discuss-moqtalk.org Archives: http://lists.moqtalk.org/pipermail/moq_discuss-moqtalk.org/ http://moq.org.uk/pipermail/moq_discuss_archive/
