What about when last week, out of the blue, and now feel sorry for doing such a stupid thing, on a whim I opened an account with an online horse racing gambling site, deposited $200 dollars, then bet $20 dollars on some ponies after handicapping The Daily Racing Forum, lost the $20 dollars, realized this was totally dumb and ... felt guilty about it, and ...
... it wasn't my own choice, my own free will to do such a thing? Like, I was controlled, or forced, tricked to do it and had nothing to do with my boredom at the time?
... Luckily, I got that $20 dollars back, because I bought some stock after that and today I already have a $6849 profit! But the reason I bought that stock is, not that it was my own mind, my own analysis of the market, my own free will to do so, but tricksterism controlling my mind?
If I even have a mind or soul?
And if none of us have free will, wouldn't the "results" sort of all balance out the same for all, like everyone is equally a loser? I mean, I understand, some live in a desert, some live on top of an iceberg, some live in California, and so on, so that might impact the bottom line with all things equal and we have no will and are the same clay if you will, but then why are some "teachers" and "creators" and others are just "consumers" and "complainers" and why are some too lazy to feed themself and demand others to feed them if they have no free will? Wouldn't everyone just sit with their mouth open and expect some giant bird will drop a sour green jelly candy into their gullet?
Or do we actually do have a brain that is, not so much "tricked", but "balancing" and "calculating" to achieve a "result"? And why are these "results" or "goals" so diverse, one has this goal, another entirelly different, and if we have no will and ability to analyse then how did these "experts" even have the ability to analyse these conclusions in this analysis and why would it even occur to them to do so if they are all just mush?
