You have made a category error, in order to force it to look as if I choose beliefs. But I did not say I could not choose to commit suicide by walking off a cliff -- of course I could. What I said was I could not choose to stop believing gravity. That I cannot do. And while I can choose to burn myself, I cannot choose to believe that a red stove burner is not hot and will not damage my skin.No you still choose. You would be choosing not to die and not to burn yourself. But there are many people who have chosen to commit suicide. There are monks who have chosen to walk on hot coals. So whether you will admit it or not - it is still a choice.
And there is a little bit of physics to walking on hot coals, too. The amount of time the foot is in contact with the ground is not enough to induce a burn, combined with the fact that embers are not good conductors of heat
Please don't twist my meaning to suit yourself.
