I'll choose for myself what is accessible. Kant was an equal and opposite reaction to Luther and equally wrong. He has zero validity in our day and age. Your syphilitic lunatic Neitzsche at least had some lucid moments. I don't blame you for falling into the trap of believing that something wordy and verbose must be enlightened.

Free Will

There are those who think that life has nothing left to chance, A host of holy horrors to direct our aimless dance.

A planet of playthings,
We dance on the strings
Of powers that we cannot perceive
"The stars aren't aligned -
Or the gods are malign"
Blame is better to give than receive.

You can choose a ready guide in some celestial voice.
If you choose not to decide, you still have made a choice.
You can choose from phantom fears and kindness that can kill;
I will choose a path that's clear-
I will choose Free Will.

There are those that think there were dealt a losing hand,
The cards were stacked against them - they weren't born in Lotus-Land.

All preordained-
A prisoner in chains-
A victim of venomous fate.
Kicked in the face,
You can't pray for a place
In Heaven's unearthly estate.

You can choose a ready guide in some celestial voice.
If you choose not to decide, you still have made a choice.
You can choose from phantom fears and kindness that can kill;
I will choose a path that's clear-
I will choose Free Will.

Each of us-
A cell of awareness-
Imperfect and incomplete.
Genetic blends
With uncertain ends
On a fortune hunt that's far too fleet.

I hate to break this to you but not one hero out there right now requires your nod of approval.
