Uh... So therefore you acknowledge that I didn't say that... Ok that's good what I posted was quite clear whatever further inferences you make are all on you
As for evidence that's what Google is for
Ironically, http://lmgtfy.com/?q=burden+of+proof
And finally the point about free will leads back to what I just said about values influencing behavior
Sure you may have free will but if you're following values with the understanding that should you choose to reject them you will be punished and that those values are the only way to live your life
If you do not have enough mental fortitude to decide your own values, then the one who taught you those values are responsible, Religion isn't institincual
You're going to be coerced into making certain decisions based on those values that should be obvious... So ultimately what I'm saying is that as a theist no you do not have free will under certain conditions
Said values do not have a will that acts upon anything, especially since Religion is subjective, open to interpretation, yes you can fault someone for their interpretations and being cooerced. Not to mention you always have free will as long as you understand the situation you are in.
