MM: Now, weren't you going to explain to us just how it is that your free-will allows us to choose one behavior over another.
Well, among other things, it’s the sapience in Homo sapiens sapiens. Nevertheless, MM, I of course can understand how you yourself “feel compelled by your emotions” to “believe” that there can be no “free-will” (or moral responsibility) allowing us to choose one behavior over another, and that believing that is obviously what makes you yourself feel good, and, using your “axiom,” you’ve “used your brains to justify it.”
