Free Will and those that don't have it - NPCs

Serious question, has their mind been stripped of the ability to reason and problem solve? They almost act like robots who have been programmed and never go off script..

lol classic dodge.
I won't wait more than a minute or two, as in my experience, people who don't want to know they are wrong find any and every way to avoid being told the details of their faults.

unauthorized correction at that ;-)

You’d argue that every victim of crime or circumstance suffers at their own hand?

BTDT, I had knowitallitus for the longest. I truly wish you well form such dis ease.

Another one ^^^, using his free will to reject faith and the kingdom of God.

Gotta love though, how these lost deluded souls always refer to people who tell them the truth, as "thumpers".

I've never "thumped" a bible in my life.

People who don't believe the truth are highly threatened by the truth.

To them, the gospel is horrible news.



"Without faith, it is impossible to please God" Hebrews 11:6

"God resists the proud, But gives grace to the humble." 1st peter 5:5

I wasn't aware I needed authorization. But thanks for the heads up.

People with severe mental illnesses have limited free will.

Nope, I am very ignorant, as are you. Too much knowledge, but I understand the corner stone of the personalities of most people and how they formed because I have studied it.

Now, state the logic behind free-will. I almost guarantee it is not an absolute statement, but a series of questions you don't have a solid answer to. But, I could be wrong.

not even if I was paid! and Im not a christain or thumper but do find wisdom in that book too.

for instance this comes to mind:


Proverbs 11:15

"He that is surety for a stranger shall smart for it: and he that hateth suretiship is sure."

but the words mean different things to different people, just like the question I mentioned before that I ask myself sometimes.

"what 'makes' me so sure"

Not free will. He was designed to say that and you have no right, by God's law, to know whether or not or say whether or not this man/women will repent and be saved. And that is partially how we know free-will does not exist outside the Torah.

I don't think this dude is using the terms right. If life is a simulated game like he's talking about then players can't be different levels of NPCs because by definition NPCs aren't playable characters.

Some have souls.
Some will earn souls.
Some are soulless.

HINT: The soulless get the soul earners to oppress the souls.

You also have Angels but thats another story.

Free will not to follow the herd into a pit.

yw! when one man authors words, he is authorized to correct them but when one who did not authorize those words corrects them without permission, thats unauthorized ;-)

his terms.. who am I to correct them (without prior agreement of definition)

I do not subscribe to quantum anything, its BS but I aslo do not throw out babys with bath water (on purpose anyway) but I get his point with the NPC levels

What makes you choose your particular faith over any other?

Maybe so, but the most important choice He made "before the founding of the world" is that you would have free will.

This explains a lot, thank you

This book should be required reading for this thread: [link to wn.rsarchive.org (secure)]

so demanding..

whadaya know about freewheeling? or the spoken wheel vs the spoken will and how they serve similar purposes?

are you familiar with (understand/overstand) a 'truing stand'?

I seek not truth because there is only one (that there is no truth) I do strive for trueness.

its all these written words create con fusion..

Free Will is from God / Source / The Creator.

can you elaborate? at least what part/page because Stiener is not exactly a favorite of mine. thnx

Not a favorite, but you’ve never even read the first and most important book he ever published? You can’t reduce the book to a paragraph, but here’s one example:

Each member of a totality is determined, as regards its characteristics and functions, by the whole totality. A racial group is a totality and all the people belonging to it bear the characteristic features that are inherent in the nature of the group. How the single member is constituted, and how he will behave, are determined by the character of the racial group. Therefore the physiognomy and conduct of the individual have something generic about them. If we ask why some particular thing about a man is like this or like that, we are referred back from the individual to the genus. The genus explains why something in the individual appears in the form we observe.
Man, however, makes himself free from what is generic. For the generic features of the human race, when rightly understood, do not restrict man's freedom, and should not artificially be made to do so. A man develops qualities and activities of his own, and the basis for these we can seek only in the man himself. What is generic in him serves only as a medium in which to express his own individual being. He uses as a foundation the characteristics that nature has given him, and to these he gives a form appropriate to his own being. If we seek in the generic laws the reasons for an expression of this being, we seek in vain. We are concerned with something purely individual which can be explained only in terms of itself. If a man has achieved this emancipation from all that is generic, and we are nevertheless determined to explain everything about him in generic terms, then we have no sense for what is individual.

Im fairly sure that we can all agree that we did not create ourselves?

and we each have will power. what is that specifically? 'will power'

an electrical charge? are we capacitors in some sort of way? can we be con trolled by our emotions?

yes, I think many of us can and are con trolled this way.

I think POLitics is a sure fire mechanism for this.

perhaps the ones who have not discovered how this POLitical system POLarizes them are not on the same NPC level as those who have discovered this?

just freewheeling freestyle here. does seem that everything is Pure Energy

Horse shit.

Find a real issue.

Steiner? Pretentious clap trap. Yay for college!

Even given that we didn’t create ourselves, are we not participating in the creation of our future selves with every choice we make in the present?

thanks for the reminder... I see psycobabble when I read that. not that I think that of you FWIW but just right there he is using three different words for the same exact thing (man)

it would seem so.. but things are not always what they seem.

especially 'time' and if we are con cerned with the future then we are not exactly 'present' are we?

lol

I am a 'real issue'
