Re: Here's a test... care to see how much 'free will' you really have?

Sorry T, but I find that to be a test of "will power" versus free will and I exercise my free will not to waste my time proving nothing anymore than would a similar test of not blinking for x number of minutes or holding my breath for x number of seconds.

If is fully predetermined then one should be able to predict what thought would interrupt the pattern and at what moment, but neither of us nor anyone else can do that.Just for clarification when I say that nothing is predetermined I mean actual events and not normal functions like regular patterns of thoughts interrupting or blinking or breathing or sleeping.  I mean actual events.

We are actually arguing trivia here.  My point is simply that life is not written in stone from birth to death.

Actually, I might try your test simply to be a good sport and for the sake of seeing whether or not I could last for five uninterrupted minutes but at the moment I cannot sit or stand in one position for longer than three minutes because I overdid something this past weekend.  Might have been when I turned over a mini-boat that had a lot of water,, or might have happened when the ATV took some air coming off a bump and crashed.  Whatever it was it is giving me fits and I am going to have to do a bit of healing myself it seems.

Do you think it was predetermined? lol
