[MD] Fw: Natural or supernatural?

[David M]

Gav

When I stand at the cross roads I can go
forward, left, right or back and until I do,
those possibilities are as important to my
existence as gravity and air. If there was no
decision to make there would be no need
for experience/consciousness. Opennes=DQ=Consciousness=agency,
save a few qualifications.
