If you've ever flipped through a high school textbook, you've probably noticed something odd about the pictures plastered throughout it. For what reason do all the pictures depict odd-looking, strangely dressed people? It's not even the decade the book was printed in that's the issue - the people are downright odd. From their facial expressions to their posture, the people depicted in textbooks are exceedingly strange. Why?

I’m just astonished. A girl told me (without knowing a bit from each other) that my eyes reflected happiness and liberation. She argued eyes really reflect what’s inside our souls, but I have still some doubts. Do you think this is really possible?

I believe that free-will is the ability to make my own decisions.
Determinism is that all actions including human decisions can be pre-determined with enough knowledge.

I don't see a problem believing both are true.

If you have a problem with that, why do you believe human decisions can't be determined with enough knowledge?
