[QUOTE="Mink61, post: 76874924, member: 422049"] Why not? People do that every day. I don't necessarily want or 'desire' to clean my kitchen. I would much rather choose to do something more fun. Yet, I will do it. Maybe...^_^ Yes. See above. Free will is about having the [I][U]ability[/U][/I] to make a choice. It's not about having the desire. Ability=skill, knowledge, capabiity, fitness (mental and/or physical), resources, experiences, competence and capacity. Nothing about 'desire.' Ability is actually [I]power.[/I] So, in essence, free will is about having the power to make a decision between 2 or more options. Because life isn't about doing what we want to do, when we want to do it. Sex doesn't "happen." Sometimes, some people will have sex, even though they don't want to have sex, just to keep the peace. See answer above. [/QUOTE]
