I don’t know the difference between what I want and what I’m trained to want.
I can’t tell what I really want and what I’ve been tricked into wanting.
What I’m talking about is free will. Do we have it, or does God dictate and script everything we do and say and want? Do we have free will, or do the mass media and our culture control us, our desires and actions, from the moment we’re born? Do I have it, or is my mind under the control of Helen’s spell?
