Thinking about free will The last days i have been reading some books and articles that have made me think about free will. I am passionate about this topic. Of course the assumption is that we all have free will. But this can be easily questioned. Psychologically talking, it´s very easy to prove that we have a lot of limitations when it comes to talk about free will. Our genetic, our mother, our family where we grow up, and the 2-3 first years of our life are things completely out of our control. Those things are going to predispose us for all our life. All our mind, our brain, our nervous system is going to be structured in these 2-3 first years of our life, and yes, further ahead maybe we will be able to make decisions but always since that structure already created. But that’s not all. Let´s put aside the culture, society and people around us that as well is going to determine us. After all, at least when we become adults, we have some choice of making some decision about all those things: we can change our country or the people we have around us. But look, the food has an incredible influence in us as well. People can be in good or bad mood, and they can make decisions only because of the food they eat. I mean, we are not aware of the incredible influence that food has in us. Even if we pay attention of what we eat, the problem here is when it comes to talk about the quality of that food, the chemicals, pesticides, OMG, etc. We could think in toxic as well in the air or in the water, and for sure all those things have influence in the way we feel and think. Much more than people can imagine. Yes, but then here we have something that goes beyond everything else: the wave’s technology. It seems that we are very sensitive to some sort of waves, and our brain, feelings and emotion are strongly affected to that. It seems that some corporations and governments are working about this technology and now then can simply change (for example) the emotional state of people with those waves. The people target in these case will not realize of anything, among other reasons because it´s very difficult to imagine, that suddenly what is happening to you, what you are feeling, is due to something that you cannot even see… it´s incredible to see how manipulable we are… and I didn’t have mentioned even the half of the possibilities… then, where is the free will? Where is the capacity that we should have to struggle and fight against these source of control?
