Freedom and free will

I believe in freedom. Freedom is the key to happiness, to peace and to prosperity. Freedom is an object which all human beings should seek.

But I don't believe in free will. How can this be? I'm certainly not going to argue for predestination, a which is a flawed religious theory based upon an anthropomorphised view of God and a failure to grasp the law of causality. No, what I object to is not the "free" bit but the "will" bit. Freedom does not come from the willpower of human beings. Our will to work, will to eat, and all our other desires are not the source of real freedom.

The human instinct which give the term "freedom" its good name is in on the higher levels of our consciousness, not our will but our inspiration.
