Its Time to ASK THE WOLF

Dear Wolf,

Is free will an illusion that our minds cling to as a way of lending validity to its otherwise meaningless existence? Do we have any actual true agency or is the determinist correct in saying that all events that occur are simply reactions to events that have happened in the past. Since we are a part of the entire continuum of cause to effect how can we claim that we have any ability to transcend it?

Okay, easier question this time!

If people feel "blue" when they are feeling down, what color does a Smurf feel?

D@mn u....why were your questions easier when we werent friends? That said, when Smurfs feel down they just visit Smurfette at the Smurf Hotel for some crappy suck and blow.

Because now you feel social pressure to impress me, of course.

Smurfette is the only female, so if the Smurfs think her suck and blow is crappy what have they been comparing it to??

I think you make some grievous assumptions, first that we are all part of any continuum. The mind and soul are free to choose whichever path we want, as part of natural design. Feeling like it is a meaningful existence is just a way for those without morals to justify their behaviors and ultimately is a cop out.

Also, JIm Morrison is in Africa with BRuce Lee and Tupac.

So on the one hand I now know that I do have agency and my life has meaning! Thanks Mr. Wolf. Also as promised you made my life worse because as a person without morals you have stated that I no longer have any justification for my actions. I am delighted and dismayed by your words. I both appreciated and disdain you. You are a wise teacher and a spoiler of parties. I wish you all the best of luck in the world and that you will then be met with bad fortune.

Is it a bad thing that I love breakfast foods so much that I could eat them all day long? (calories permitting of course)

Thats just wierd.

Would it be wrong for me to wish you had spelled weird right?

When you can snatch the stone from my hand you will become master.

I look forward to that day. Did you have to snatch a stone from your master's hand or did he have a different test?
