    Is Choice an Illusion in Decision Making?

    We have no choice. Since the idea of decision requires at minimum at least two choices I can prove choice impossible: At the point when a person attends to one choice, the physics of the other time and place are moving (energy is neither created nor destroyed, nor stopped), which proves by...
