Everyone has it. (I made this because someone in the Corrupt a Wish Topic wished for this.)
But are Our wills ever free, are they Not (at least subconciously) Always influenced by sth??

Even if they are influenced by something, the choice is still yours, right? I could have ignored your measage but instead I chose to answer it.
But maybe the Desire to be apprechiated which U might Not even know U Had influenced U to
But what influenced U to respond :P btw everyone in my Philosophy class hated me for this

I don't hate you lol, quite the opposite. I love a good argument. My good will influenced me to respond. If I chose not to respond that would be my bad will.
Maybe but those wills aint free or under Ur controll realy U might think they are but in reality they are influenced by Ur Upbringing and Other factors beyond Ur controll

Once you are at the age of reason (which means you can start thinking about stuff, around age 7) you can choose to do what you want. Your choices may be influenced, but you still control yourself.
I disagree . Ur Upbringing and experiences will Always Play a Part ( thx for being reasonable in discussion Other ppl freaked Out on me because I disagreed with them and felt personaly attaced!)

Even if you're influenced by something, you can still go against the influence and do something else.
For example: an experienced assassin is told to kill a family, but after he kills the parents, he decides to spare the 4 year old girl who is crying and not even sure of what is going on.
The influence of his boss would've made him kill her.
However realizing that the girl did nothing to harm him, etc. caused him to spare the child.

Yes but maybe there is sth Else influencing him to spare her.
I dunno maybe He Had a little sister He Loved , maybe (despite beeing an Assassin) He has a little Girl Himself who He Loves dearly and she reminds him of His daughter
No No No U missunderstand me . But the thought of how He would feel If sth happened to His daughter ( who THIS Gal reminds him Off ) might lead him to spare her. ( I don't think there will ever be Proof as to Wether or Not will is free or Not. Philosophers have dealt with THIS Quest for Milleniums)
