Go Figure

(2)

Nothing in the news served to jolt me out of my unpleasant situation, so I turned to the web. (I also abandoned 3.2 beer for the moment in favor of a double shot of booze.) What does this link suggest? Do you understand this story? I don't but I have an excuse; you don't. Which naturally brings us to the subject of 'free will.' What is that, exactly? Is 'free will' a scientific term or a metaphysical term?

Do you know anybody who has 'free will?' Do you have 'free will?' Does an addict have 'free will?' Does an obsessive-compulsive have 'free will?' Probably not. And WHTZSNM is gonna burn all our sorry asses in Hell to satisfy His zero-sum proclivities? And we don't even have free fucking will!?'

Go figure.
