My question is: Why did God give us free will when he created us? It's obvious so that we could make our own decisions be they good or bad but was it to test us? What do you think?
I don't think anyone 'gave' us free will. I think we developed it.
@Ragnar- Again, I am just theorizing.
Cool. It's good mental exorcise. I don't claim any special insite, I'm just putting out there what I've gathered and my incomplete understanding of the philosophers I've read and tend to agree with.
As the the religious arguments, I'm an athiest and can't contribute there. I respect religious people and have some knowledge, particularly of Chritianity, but mostly it serves to inform my respect for American literature and not philosophy.
