cuchulain Posted August 9, 2018 Report Share Posted August 9, 2018 17 hours ago, Seeker said: I was responding to Cuchulain's "will it make you a better person?". The context there seems to me to imply a conscious choice. I think its a mixture - we think about where we are internally led. There's a saying I like it that respect - man(kind) is not a rational animal, but a rationalizing animal. In that view we do, and then we find reasons for what we have done. I don't think that's the whole truth, but IMHO it is a lot closer to the mark than the alternative. your right. i thought of it as a choice when i said that, but i dont view belief as a choice, so my premise was flawed. thanks for further explaining that.
