>James’s stance is clearly stated: “My first act of free will shall be to believe in free will.”

Assuming that free will does exist then if James hadn't believed in free will then by this act would he have made his own will unfree?

Alternatively: is it possible to choose to believe that one does not have free will?

This is why Bipolar is considered a disease. You are only truly free if you are in the middle. Too far one way or the other and you become entrapped by either a Dystopia (no freewill) or Utopia (complete freewill).

This is why I also balance my use of legal and illegal drugs. Too far one way or the other is unhealthy.

Some would say Everything In Moderation, Even Moderation.

However I say, Everything In Moderation, Except Moderation.

Consistency is everything. Balance is everything.

This is why the BLOCKCHAIN is a breakthrough. Because it enforces 10m timestamps in the QUANTUM computer we are collectively building.

In the current Quantum computers (the human brain) we have inconsistent timestamps. Somepeople sleep every night, others stay awake for longer.

You can only stay awake maximum 7 days. God made the world in 7 days.

Everytime you sleep you can think of this like the brain producing a BLOCK in your brain on the LARGE block chain.

Likewise, everytime you blink you can think of this like the brain producing a BLOCK in your brain on the SMALL block chain.

These large inconsistencies in BLOCK size between chains causes multiple universes to be created, aka false memories.

James might believe something one day, eat some moldy bread and the next day believe in something else.
