If you rub your head and pat your belly at the same time, is it your fault?

What is determination again?
"Determinism"? Determinism is the concept that all events, human actions and thought in particular, happen because they had antecedent causes that insure they will be exactly what they are and nothing else. All events absolutely have to be the way they are. Determinism and absolute randomness, are the only two agents of action, which give lie to freewill. Freewill is an illusion.

Some people think all things are 'fixed' from the beginning.....
and in the same reality absolute random events exist!

I thought of rubbing your belly, & it occurred to me....
When you wrestle, is it always mud wrestling?
Are hot babes always involved?

ok try this!...

right hand chest high....circle out and down....then back up to chest high....
left hand chest high...circle in and down....then out, up and back to chest.

Two circles in opposite rotation....at the same time!!!!!!
not one hand following the other.

Your hands should pass each other at top of circle and again at bottom.
