I would say it is the other way around. Morals and ethics, dictate how you use free will. Your way, is how others, will judge you,
General / Off-Topic In the thread.....So... Do we have free will? :)

To me, when it comes to moral ethics etc.. I consider that 'temptation' is one of the greatest sins. Giggity!
I can prove that I am not a psychopath, I have a piece of paper; that says so.
Let me ask the first and most pertinent question to the last part of your statement...
"The biggest enemies of Terra are wilful ignorance and the continued belief in stupid superstitions that divide us as a people."
Is a foundational truth established from the past??
Stupid superstitions aside... does it make sense that if i acknowledge the past truth... it is established also in the present and the future??
i have found over the course of experience
people who choose to confuse... use a general statement ... expand it to include anything and everything... wrap it up as a package of truth... and present it as such...
people who wish to learn of the truth... build upon the simple blocks of understanding... these blocks have always existed in the past!!

As am I Manticore.I actually think that an ethical life where "free will" is exercised and religion(s) are totally anathema.
I would much rather base a "good life" in "free will" thusly:
(Emphasis added by me).
What is the Good Life? Plato, Aristotle, Nietzsche, & Kant’s Ideas in 4 Animated Videos
We all have some vision of what the good life should look like. Days filled with reading and strolls through museums, retirement to a tropical island, unlimited amounts of time for video games…. Whatever they may be, our concepts tend toward fantasy of the grass is greener variety.www.openculture.com
O.k. so I'm supporter of a rationalist view of existence.
The idea of free will destroys religion's control and subjection of the populace.
No more original sinner babies either.
Immanuel Kant was a real ant you know.
Truth is told. Facts are real. Therefore, what was believed to be the truth in the distant past. don't have to become facts today.
Example: Take the Dinosaurs. Now take the Hitch Hikers Guide to the Galaxy and the planet factory. They were looking down at the Earth being re-built and watched the dinosaur bones being put in. So what can you believe, to be real?
the earth goes around the Sun you could get killed by the church if you said it didn't a few hundred years ago
old testament says the woman's praying from man's ribs that instantly subjugated women and made them in equal to man one thousand years I'm making them lesser and not equal as they really are.
Sorry Array lost my post for a second typing

you have essentially equated your argument in this way...
x + 1 does not equal x + 1
that is not only a error... it is factually untrue... and to put it in the context of what it really is in a reaLLy really nice way......
its a lie
Truth in what respect?
Physicaliy evident objects and easily repeatable experiments using scientific methods
or
Making up some goofy theobiology about woman springing from my rib cage basically bamboodling female humans of their rightful equality to males for the next 100 years?
One is hearsay, the other is truth.
I don't think you can handle the truth or else you'd have become agnostic years ago.
Ask god, because right now, you are in error. Defamation is also one of my 'biggie sins'. Read it again and get back to me.
Its interesting you bring up the Rib cage etc... you are acknowledging the past... which is good... choosing not to accept it...is Free Will
you clearly perceive where my thoughts and origins of my understanding stems from.
For that i applaud you!!
Looks the same on paper don't it
Mis typed and lost post, check now
Damn Arry. Have you considered a career in Politics?
I meant in general, not a specific calamity.
That was a hellish error they made
I'm preferring a little younger than myself, but that's quite the argument.
Arry you lucky dog, you!
That is not the past that is the worst fantasy book ever writtenIts interesting you bring up the Rib cage etc... you are acknowledging the past... which is good... choosing not to accept it...is Free Will
you clearly perceive where my thoughts and origins of my understanding stems from.
For that i applaud you!!
Books by committee by ignorant old man always turn out that way
it's all about power 6 that's what the Bible's about it's about power and how to control people that's it there's no supernatural I'm sorry.
