We want to believe that we control our own lives, that we get to make choices. There are plenty of societies that reject that. They are content to live their lives believing that they are living them as has been written. To the Greeks, every action they took was because the Gods made them. If you murdered your neighbor it was because the gods

...Who the fuck is Jensen Ackles?

[vampfuckudie]

Well, he's probably not a rock star.

[jerkchester]

Great, that narrows it down.

[vampfuckudie]

And he likes Survivor.

A lot, apparently.

What do you think? Do you believe in predestination?

[shuts_cakehole]

No.

Einstein was adamant that God leaves nothing up to chance, but it turns out that particle physics feels differently, so hey what does Einstein know?

The video is very entertaining, of course, but how would someone prove to you that they're in control of their own life?

[vampfuckudie]

You can't, that's the point.

[charmer_snake]

And you can't prove otherwise. It's a meaningless argument, then, isn't it?

[vampfuckudie]

That's what I think too, but it hasn't stopped people from doing it for thousands of years.

Society itself tries hard enough not to leave anything for it's members to decide by themselves. If we have a free will, it wouldn't matter with the world being what it is.

[laaaaaaughs a little]

You don't know the half of it.

[yourcompetition]

And why's that?

Nice vid, though. Who's the idiot?

[vampfuckudie]

People are happier thinking they have freedom than finding out the truth.

It looks like some new counselor.

Regardless of whether you control your life or if some God controls it, what matters is your outlook on life in general. If you think good will happen, then you'll see good in everything that happens. But if you think bad will happen, then that's all you'll see in the world.

[vampfuckudie]

So it's all about attitude, huh? I don't buy that.

[taniyama_wryyy]

Why not?

[vampfuckudie]

Some people just have bad luck. Attitude has nothing to do with that.
