“Revolution in Thought: A new look at determinism and free will"

Pg has probably been reciting this stuff since she was a kid.

It is like pointing out inconsistencies in the bible to someone raised Evangelical or Jehovah Witness.

Or like making the Pope Muslim.

You'll have to trust me on this.

Literally nobody has to trust anyone on anything. Doing so is a good way to get scammed, or brainwashed, or both.

Pg, we have no way to verify your claims. Hence no trust,

"Trust, but verify" is a Russian proverb popularized by U.S. President Ronald Reagan during nuclear disarmament negotiations with the Soviet Union in the 1980s. It means establishing trust in a partnership while maintaining accountability through independent verification. This approach, often used in leadership and security, builds stronger, more transparent relationships.
