Now, you've made it clear as to why your reasoning is flawed. You're example consists of two separate choices. Choice 1, you choose to pick it up. Choice 2, you choose not to pick it up. We make lots of choices, and every choice had an effect. Which you totally ignored that concept. I choose to pick up the box, that's the cause. The result of my choice has the effect of me not picking it up. I didn't choose to not pick up the box.If you pick up the product, than you have made your choice. If you choose to not pick it up, then that too is a choice. It's choices all the way and all the way down. This isn't that difficult to follow.
It's a contradiction because you cannot choose and not not choose at the same time. The only way for it not to be a contradiction is if it is like what I said, cause and effect. The cause, I choose not to choose. And the effect resulted in me not choosing was caused by my choice of not choosing.Explain how it is.
All of our choices have effects, but not all effects are caused by our choices. All you did was give an example of a decision made then gave a conclusion without showing the steps in between as to how and why you came to that conclusion.
If I choose not to catch the ball and it broke the window, that does not mean that I chose to break the window.
Now when it comes to belief, I can choose to accept the information that is shown to me. The result of that can either convince me or it won't. If it convinces me, it results in me believing, if not then the result is me not believing.
