oh
So basically emotional constructs not based in necessity...
regardless you shouldn't insult him while he isn't here to atleast defend himself
We identify these things as morals but they would exist regardless
Morals are evolutionarily useful for social animals to function together
Emotion does not prove the existence of god
Does morality exist without emotions?
Why does Peter Parker be Spiderman?
They can exist
I know psychopaths who are very compatible
But emotions make socializing easier
And pulls society closer
Anyhow
Kind of off topic comment as that has nothing to do with proving god
So you are saying emotions are favourable...
In the context of socializing
Not proving the existence of god

I'm getting there.
>free will
You can't choose something without a preference. You can't have a preference without emotion.
More like prevent it
Yes your preference forces your choice
Do people choose their emotions that are favourable to society?
What like murder is bad?
Humans are evolutionarily designed to not want to do that for no reason
Your preferences are a part of you. So basically a part of you forces your choices. Which means you choose by the force of emotion. Thus free will is emotional.
It's not really free will then
It's just choice
?
Just like animals make choices
So people, without choosing, act in a favourable way, based on a blind assumption from emotion.
Do animals have free will?
If you have self-control, you have free will.
It's not a blind assumption
Society won't work if everyone is murdering each other
People who did that died off
You have to be free from impulse. For example, if you can keep jogging even when you're tired, you have free will.
Sure but why are you jogging
