As usual i fail to see the point and you do...let's try again....when one has free-will one is responsible for one's own actions.....in other words, if i climb up a ladder out of my own free will and slip i will hurt myself and cause myself unneccessary pain, NOT if i climb up a ladder out of my own free will and slip and hurt myself the government will ban ladders and possibly have me arrested for expressing my free will.
Free will and any condition of any kind cannot go hand in hand. Free will is not the same as choice.
Choice: you can either do this or that and face the consequences
Free-will: you can do this or that or neither and there will be no consequences whatsoever.
Please Coach do not get confused between the two.....get rid of the smoke to get a clearer picture.
>God prohibited this and you get it from Holy Scripture
>revealed to Messenegers of God.
One sweeping statement and you expect everybody to believe that? The books are not an authority on God. If God so willed God would/could just as easily reveal that stuff to us directly.....or do you think God is incapable of that???

Here you shoot urself in the foot again......so this God once approved of alcohol and then realized what a fcking mistake He's made and sent an sms through his messengers which He knew we might not accept since He gave us the free will to accept and reject anything without any problems.

The soul is that which beholds beauty even when the mind denies it.
