I'm not sure I understand, WW. I didn't post a song because I was involved in something else at that moment. That's why I offered up a free post in lieu of my turn. Sorry if I did something wrong. That wasn't my intention.

I think there was a notation on the introduction page that said something like, "Catch me if you can.".

And some who erroneously believe they are acting out of free will are merely reacting, unproportionally, to pre-programmed dogma and instilled bias.

Maybe, but couldn't he have just "reached up in Daddy's cookie jar"? :biglaugh: :biglaugh:

All of us think, behave, reason, make judgements and formulate decisions in relation to what we have been taught, felt and experienced. In that sense, no one really acts entirely out of free will.

Roundabout.....Yes (It still gets a lot of air play.) Free Post!!!!

You said: Free will rejoices against scientific studies. What does that mean, in plain English?

Anybody want a free post?

Wow! Art Carney was a rapper! Who knew?

That's by Weezer.Some of you may be more familiar with .

What does that even mean?? (I suspect it's some catch phrase, based on a distortion of James 2:13, you picked up and are parroting back.)

My son used to be a fan of this group so that puts me at an unfair advantage. So, I'll just bow out....wouldn't want to spill the beans or anything like that.

Wierwille was your classic demagogue. Small peanuts, though, really, compared to some of the more widely known demagogues that history has produced, such as Adolph Hitler and Joe McCarthy. "But though there is no difference in this respect between the best demagogue and the worst, both of them having to present their cases equally in terms of melodrama, there is all the difference in the world between the statesman who is humbugging the people into allowing him to do the will of God, in whatever disguise it may come to him, and one who is humbugging them into furthering his personal ambition and the commercial interests of the plutocrats who own the newspapers and support him on reciprocal terms."....George Bernard Shaw SOURCE edited for spelling

It looks like The Westboro Baptist Church agrees with that assessment. HERE Geeze...What a dilemma...Who ya gonna side with on this one, Johnny... Rosie or Westboro?

Like a car dealer that turns back mileage.....He knows it's wrong but getting caught is not part of his plan.

Would you care to cite a few of these studies?

"I was 22 when I got in the word, but I find no relevance in that." Then, apparently, your opinion contradicts valid scientific studies that indicate a 22 year old's brain is not fully developed in relation to making decisions involving risky behavior.

Please accept my apology. Sometimes things that seem clear to me are really.....ummm...not so clear.

Use Me....Bill Withers (One of my roomies in FLO used to sing this all the time.) Free Post!!

Well, some people would just say they're tough to read.....you're too kind. :)

"You're always welcome at The Way.".....VPW

I'm still trying to figure out how you can be kicked out of an organization that has no membership.

When I first got in da verd, I was a big fan of Spirit and King Crimson. They told me I had to get rid of that seed boy music or the booger man would get me. BOO!!!
