The HMS STFU - OK, this is just stupid
|
| Sure, it happened. It's just that Harry went through it passively, like a programmed robot because he never verbalized his choice. You must state a choice out loud and very specifically for it to count.
The way this person can twist the notions of choice and free will in the face of overwhelming evidence to the contrary makes me think they would make a brilliant defense attorney. | | (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread) |
| All this reminds me of parody on Goodkind which I've seen here:
Richard sat down.
The reason that Richard sat down is that he was tired from walking all day. It was an act of free will. If anyone had told him that he shouldn't sit down, he would not have listened to them because his life is his life is his own and nobody else can tell him what to do with his own life.
'It is reasonable to sit down when you are tired.' Said Richard, as he thought deeply about how much he hated prophecy because it doesn't allow for free will. 'Anyone who tells you to not sit down when you have gotten tired from walking all day is a fool, a FOOL!'"
. . . and so on for many more paragraphs. | | (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread) |
| The only things I've read of Goodkind are the Evil Chicken and the Glorious Statue excerpts, but that's enough for this parody to have me guffawing.
And, yes, it does seem to fit WalnutWandCarrier's requirements for good fiction! | | (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread) |
