I went hiking out in Nature alone over the weekend and had a divine revelation. A MerQabah appeared in the clouds and proceeded to land in front of me. I then heard a voice come forth and he said, "You, wearing the red MAGA hat, listen carefully. I have chosen (YOU) to make a covenant with. Stop listening to false authority figures and begin to THINK and TRUST yourself to KNOW, SPEAK, and ACT upon the TRUTH. Become an example for others to follow and spread this philosophy of TRUTH among your fellow Americans and then let it spread among all peoples of the world until we renew and make Earth great again."

 

So, its official, we have been "chosen."

I AGREE

 

However, I think that the recent mass promotion of disbelief in “Free Will” by the technocratic and trans-humanist class has potentially dangerous moral consequences for humanity. Regardless of whether we can ever actually “prove” that “free will” exists, the more noble scientific question is "how does the belief in “free will” serve humanity in our daily lives today?"

 

Fortunately, this question has been investigated by science and the results have clear implications. However, I never hear the Free Will Illusionists acknowledge the strong empirical evidence demonstrating that efforts to induce disbelief in “free will” increases cheating (1), aggression (2), racial prejudice (3) and conformity (4), while decreasing helping behavior (2), self-control (5,6), gratitude (7) and sound judgment (8).

 

When viewed from this perspective, it should raise profound concerns regarding the underlying intentions of those who seek to convince us all that “free will” is an illusion.
