Hello everybody!

I've been away for some time, so I didn't look at this topic in a while. But now, after reading all this again, I have a question: Why would these people from another universe, if they exist, have no free will?
Doesn't that sound a bit strange? They don't have a free will. Why not? Because we have it? Again, isn't that a bit egocentric?
Amarie, can you explain to me why they wouldn't have a free will? I really like to know.

Yes, it's like thinking that the earth is the center of the universe, or that there is no other life in the universe.
Precisely! That's just what I meant, Elennar!

Well, I'm hopefully awaiting your replies.

Aethelwine.
