You appear to be operating under the assumption that science is complete and that physics and those things that act on the known five senses are all there are. Explain dark matter. Explain wave-particle duality. Where in your brain can you find the boogey man eliciting real cold sweats? Whatever your answers, it could likely still be asked, “well how does THAT work?” or just as well, “Why should that be?” Funny that you mention God. At the root of the mechanics of Nature being clung to here, there was initially an act of what? Free Will perhaps? What are the implications of that in a fractal Universe? There seem to be a series of irreducible working dualities at play that can’t yet, if ever, be explained, only observed and described. By that logic, God and the bowling pins appear now to be inseparable. To attempt to mold a society, harvest a planet, etc. around a, probably deliberately, incomplete image (science) of these workings is possibly treasonous.

I think you had a “finger problem” when you wrote this. The date should be 2014, not 2041. Reason? Pretty much the same is happening in the Oscar (Blade Runner) trial in my neck of the woods, as we speak. If you’ve followed it at all I’d appreciate your perspective.

Oh, that’s different! No. It isn’t. There is no such thing as Free Will. Every living creature is a product of two things: Its instincts (DNA/or whatever) and its influences (weather, family, culture, nutrition, etc.)

I’m not saying that humans can’t hold a murderer to account for the sake of justice, but in doing so, they are merely acting out an unavoidable (yet complex) reaction to an unpopular action. When a dog barks at another dog, is he demonstrating his Free Will and considered opinion? Or is he merely acting out his instincts in a simple situation? To ask the question is to answer it!

God set up a very complicated set of bowling pins one day. He launched his ball at them, and the pins have been colliding and banging around ever since. Free Will, indeed!
