I didn't post [a link to an article about free will] because I could imagine
a philosophical/religious argument getting out of hand, but perhaps that

and perhaps I used to be the foremost offender, has either disappeared or
aged to the point of not wanting to argue anymore. Thus far, thankfully, I
fit into the latter and not the former category.
If one must limit oneself to casting list members into either one or the other
of those categories, I'm certain that I am not mistaken in extending that
feeling of thankfulness to the vast majority of readers.
However, I would argue that there are also some of us who have learned a great
deal (and indeed are still learning)about keeping arguments 'in hand' thanks in
large part to participation in this list and its predecessor.
Note: I use that 'there are some' in the strictly logical sense of 'there is at
least one'!
