There's one thing they aren't screaming about: how free will is a myth. It's a topic that gets shot down a lot.
That's barely an info dump on the subject. Observe -
Free will is a complicated subject. If there is a divine creation (or simulation or whatever) then then what started the universe was a seed - or rather a set series of circumstances that started everything. Then everything built on that leading to me writing and you reading this.
Free will is a choice - a decision to choose where your decisions come from. Are you truly in control or do you just choose the best possible outcome based on past relevant experiences? Obviously you will live with the consequences, no one's saying you wouldn't ๐
Regardless, we're all built on consequences of our past self which'll in turn become your new past self. And from there it'll continue till death. Obviously death itself is complicated and you'll eventually face it. And what happens afterwards is another conversation. But until then you'll make the most of everything you have. Every damn day.
