It was can we ground morality without God?
And then we also debated predeterminism or determinism.
So I get into debates like that as well.
Okay.
Yeah.
So what's your stance on determinism?
I believe in free will.
So I don't believe that things are determined or predetermined.
Wow.
Yeah, I believe that God is the first cause.
God caused everything, created the universe, and then God created human beings to be special.
Wow.
And he created human beings to have a have the ability to be the secondary cause.
Right.
So if God so some people believe that, oh, well, since God created everything, he caused everything.
He causes the good and the evil.
He causes the good and the bad.
We don't have any free will.
But in my worldview, I don't believe that that's the case.
I think that God created us to have free will so we have the ability to be the secondary cause.
