Free will doesn't exist.
No one should "forgive" an active threat.
Your cult is killing us.
it exists
Prove it. Can you even define it? It's a bullshit excuse to make us feel guilty about things we did not choose.
no
theres ur proof
That's proof that you can type the word "no". There is still zero proof of free will.
thats proof that I can freely say no
No, it's proof that you typed "no", presumably because you're so heavily invested in your identity as a catholic person that you thought typing "free will exists" is proof that it exists.
It is not. Your brain, a physical thing, decided to do that.
External factors determine the stakes of your choices. The choice is yours
I choose to be as honest as possible because I have seen how much harm can come from falsehoods.
Honestly, there is zero evidence for free will. Zero evidence for god. Zero evidence for miracles. Zero evidence for souls. Etc.
You choose the dishonest path of asserting conclusions despite lacking evidence. You see what you want to see and pretend it is true, at everyone's expense.
