Causation, Senor, is a random event--it is an idea that arose in

your mind--randomly.It is no more real than your " me " is.Ho detto.

Freewill is just something I can't understand at all. Will is what?A

force? I WILL do this. Someone says. OK . It is a feeling of power,

lets say or possibilty.Tell, me, have you every created a feeling?

or have then just come to you?Feelings are things too. LIving things

at that. Simple and indivisible.You can no more create one than you

can create anything else--including a table or chair. You can build

a chiar provided the ideas on how to do it come to you and the

neural and motor energies come to you and work through you. In the

same way you can have a moment of will, if a moment of will comes.I

don't know where the free part enters into this. Willing happens or

it doesn't.
