Philosophy 201 Guidelines
Cogito ergo sum
Here in the Philosophy forum we will talk about all the "why" questions. We'll have conversations about the way in which philosophy and theology and religion interact with each other. Metaphysics, ontology, origins, truth? They're all fair game so jump right in and have some fun! But remember...play nice!

Then according to what you have written there is no free will because "God controls people's free choices" and therefore their "free" choice has already been decided.

The things that you're liable
To read in the Bible
It ain't necessarily so."
