Yes, yes, because your opinion is absolute truth and your logic is completely infallable. Got it.

Keep in mind, the 'frozen river' analogy is neither provable nor purely logical based on our perspective of time, but that doesn't mean the person who wrote the book is stupid or illogical.

This isn't an opinion.

Free Will implies choice. If there is a deterministic path, there is no choice. They are contradictory concepts by definition. 

This isn't as complex as you seem to think it is.

Nor is it as simple a concept & discussion as you believe it to be. We'll just have to agree to disagree.

It absolutely is. Again - contradictory by definition. It's like you're saying Up is Down right now to me. Just because you're incapable of fathoming the topic doesn't mean it's difficult for me to.

There you go again with (not so) veiled attacks on my intellect, you keep it classy. By the way, your 'up' is actually 'down' to people in China :P.
