There are 2 choices, 2 votes for Neros Decay's debate

preferences: are they a choice or not?

  • Hmmmm

    A preference is a desire. Choice is action. When making a choice I do not always choose my preference. Although my preferences might be my ultimate desires, they are not always the wisest choices to be making.

    preferences are consequences of our choices and those who make their own choices, all of which affect us. the shortcomings and emptinesses in the promises of our preferences are too great to be decided once and for all without having decided to allow the possibility of submission in prefering it. it is our choice as to whether we will allow ourselves to prefer anything. then again, who's to say that in prefering nothing, one prefer's laziness, sloth, self-involvement, isolation, loneliness, withdrawal, lethargy, and any other pejorative terms which, rightly so, denigrate the idea that one has an ability to calmly and resolutely decide on what to prefer.

    without preference, one couldn't tell whether one has a free will or a choice or whatever one may call it. preference is the light which comes to us against our will to show us that we have free will. ours is the choice whether to shed it or not, but we lose more in the end.
