I don't understand the meaning of this proclamation at all, Joe.

Will by definition is the expression of desire, choice, consent, or 
volition.  When I posit free will as one's intention toward essential value 
I am describing will in a metaphysical context.  Likewise, when I define the 
"intender" as value-sensibility, I am considering the individual to be a 
free agent of a metaphysical derivative.

Everything in existence is individuated from every other.  That includes 
human beings.  If you are persuaded that the self-evident fact of human 
individuality is a "crapshoot", it's your problem, not mine.
