Alla:
Do you feel that free will is given to us by G-d? If I understood
Geoff's position correctly, that was his POV.
That I understand perfectly ( not sure if I agree or not, but at
least understand).
I think I at least agree with you that free will is not with us from
birth.
I think I am in the most agreement with Susan - that Harry does it
because it "feels right", but who gave him this "moral compass"?
