YES!!! We have free will BUT it is within pre-subcribed parameters! We go through life on a pre-ordained path but life throws up certain choices. That is where free will comes into play. Sadly, so many times we make the bad choices!

We do have freewill, yet they are only good in our choices we make, are life is already ordained and yet we choose it before entering, even our so called death. Only through forgiveness do we alter time and space and change our plan in this world, hopefully to come too understand we need not return this is the objective. I AM ..S

Our life is charted out to a certain extent, BUT anything goes. Freewill plays a part AND Divine Intervention. There are several paths laid out in front of us. Its like a choose you own adventure deal. YOU decide ULTIMATELY what happens to you.
Happy Adventures My Friend!

Definitely we have the free will. The moment you say I like it or I don't like it that's free will. nobody can put you into action only your free will. To me this is selfishness, how can a selfish mind see the unlimited life. Selfish mind is confined in a small groove that he cannot see anything outside his limited self.The only thing that a selfish mind can do is just imagine and make images about that everlasting life and it is not real it's fantasy.

Both. We have free will. We choose our actions every single day from whether to have cereal in the morning or to break the law. But I know that all of our paths are already known by the Lord (or whatever higher being you choose to believe or not believe in)

Yes and no. See, you are free to choose, but the consequences of that choice are more or less determined. Say you choose to start smoking, forgoing cultural influences etc., you chose to start smoking so the consequences of that choice will bear out in the next twenty or thirty years. Those consequence are determined unless you choose again to change.

We definately have free will. Who we are as people comes down to the free choices we make.
If you're looking at it from a religous stand point, free will is the reason that evil exists in the world

we really do have free will. The God who has made us has a plan for us, if that's to what u refer; but just as every parent plan the good for the future of his/her child; the child, just as well, has the right to turn away from that good plan unto one he wants. So we have a life that's been predestined, but we have also been given the choice, or free will, to do otherwise.

with free will and chronic ignorance we actually interfere with a perfect scenario which is made before we begun to suffer being unhappy human... Happy ones experiencing mentioned perfect scenario. It is that simple. Complexes is an offspring of restless human mind....relax it and be simple, as a result,while being happy, disturbing questions will never enter....
