Talk:Will

Cut from article:

A person who chooses not to steal because the Ten Commandments said so would not be exercising their will; neither would someone buying some music because their friends recommended it. Someone who independently forms their own moral system or who composes a musical composition pleasing to themself, however, would be exercising will.

This sounds like heresy. Who says that choosing not to steal isn't a function of human will? You may as well say that resisting temptation is not a function of will power.

This statement is tantamount to an adolescent rejection of Judeo-Christian ethics. I hesitate to let it stand, unsourced, in the article. --Ed Poor 06:48, 27 April 2007 (EDT)
