You can also come to the conclusion that eating humans is okay haha. I joke, of course. Interestingly, I’ve never really believed in any deity because it never made any sense to me. Now I’m inclined to worship Gaia, the God we live in. I’m not religious, but worshipping our ecosystem just makes sense.

Free will is an interesting concept and I think the way it’s usually used is just wrong or misunderstandable. I don’t think there is a free will, but I get the sense there is some kind of will inside me and I have to find out what my inner self really wants, or better: needs. I think the freedom to pursue that inner will is what "free will" really means.

It did cross my mind, but i won't be declaring myself food, so this is easily dismissed. 😆

but worshipping our ecosystem just makes sense.

Or at minimum handing it over in good condition to the next generations, instead of wreaking everything left and right.

What i wanted to say is, that choice is an illusion.
