LMAO; he was just shown some God-given proof for that pronouncement.

Stanford scientist, after decades of study, concludes: We don't have free will (msn.com)

Before epilepsy was understood to be a neurological condition, people believed it was caused by the moon, or by phlegm in the brain. They condemned seizures as evidence of witchcraft or demonic possession, and killed or castrated sufferers to prevent them from passing tainted blood to a new generation.

That’s good, says Stanford University neurobiologist Robert Sapolsky. That’s progress. But there's still a long way to go.
