Originally posted by dusken Yes, I know, but you are using that as a proof that her birds do not have free will. I am not saying they do or not but microorganisms are not a tool for comparison here.

Originally posted by loseyourname You guys are missing the point. I'm not trying to compare the two. I'm using the example to illustrate the fact that just because two things behave differently, they are not necessarily free. Intelligent or not, it just makes them different. It takes more to qualify as free.
Plus she did not assert that it was freewill when mentioning her birds.
