Not at all. Just because you and I cannot choose A over B or B over A doesn't mean we can't form conclusions. I conclude you cannot "act volitionally or willfully" through the logic I was caused to use. Thing is, I have no choice in concluding you're wrong here, just as you had no choice in writing the following:Where you demonstrate your inability to choose between truth and falsehood is in the fact that an object lacking volition or free will--such as you claim to be--is unable to determine whether or not some other entity is able to act volitionally or willfully.
Not at all. All the cause/effect events that led up to the point of my conclusion determined the nature of the conclusion. Absolutely no choosing took place. That there may be alternatives facing a moment of acting does not control what will be determined.Obviously it requires the ability to choose between truth and falsehood--such as you claim to lack--in order to determine that an entity is able to act volitionally or willfully.
