Thanks u/Plemethrock
We can have a discussion on whether or not free will exists. Discuss if every action we do is already predetermined by how our brain is wired, with the environment around us being the inputs.
We can also have a discussion on whether or not humans have souls and analyze the evidence for and against us just being our bodies

I don’t trust the Bible as a trusted source because the Bible is fairly explicit in its outcomes - that all mains and peoples shall be subservient to the Israelites ie Jews which is what you see unfolding in the modern world. I think that those who see the Bible as a trusted source are subject to trust most fundamental lie. The ‘god’ that you speak of, declared himself god over only one race and decreed that they alone should have sovereignty and stewardship over all other races. He acknowledged the existence of other gods and even declared his tactics to ruin empires and overthrow other cultures and these were so successful that you have people in the modern day swearing fealty to a hostile foreign god and declaring him ‘god’ above all others. Until the god of Israel (ie biblical god) is eradicated from consciousness, I don’t believe there is any push back to true free will
hmmm that doesn't sound like the Bible I've been reading. ESV.
You’ll need to read it more carefully.
Read Isaiah 19 for example. Their blueprint is laid out there quite starkly and they have repeated the trick multiple times throughout history and continue to do so today.
Yeah, welcome back. I don't recall if you ever answered why you named your account after the people you claimed to hate (Jacob/Israel). It's almost like you're revealing who you are in your alleged anti-Semitism. But don't mind me, I won't make a big deal about it.
When the Biblical god is eradicated then pushback to freewill begins, and that's a good thing why? Fatalism or something?
What an unexpected treat, welcome back! Remind us all, who is it that you think is greater than the Most High God?
