“Outside belief, I wonder how people could be absolutely certain about something which needs forever to prove, like polemic between the concept of 'free will' against 'predestination' amongst the scholars.”
Toba Beta
“The belief in free-will is not in the least incompatible with the belief in Providence, provided you do not restrict the Providence to fulminating nothing but fatal decrees.”
William James
“If there was no free will in men, then there is no sins. When sins happened, it was 'free will' that made them doable. This is true, unless God has predestined human to do and to have sins.”
“If you believe in predestination, then there is no reason to regret anything. If you believe in free-will, then there is no reason to acknowledge the prophecy. If you believe in both, then you are just looking for an easier way to perceive reality. If you don't believe in both, then you may have an eccentric way of understanding life.”
“The struggle continues until it suddenly hits you, the greatest strugle of all, is the struggle within you.”
Leif Ericsson Leo Veness
“Judge a man by his questions rather than by his answers”
Voltaire
“Man is a being with free will; therefore, each man is potentially good or evil, and it's up to him and only him (through his reasoning mind) to decide which he wants to be.”
Ayn Rand
