zen, Tatsy and tursiops, aw, thanks!
My question was, really, about acknowledging choice but then ascribing immorality to a ...what?......drive? neural system?
anyway, he cleared that up, thank you.
for myself, i am not looking to making a Big Plan, but am fascinated by the explanations, and have previously very much enjoyed gaining better understanding. see, i made many plans, big and small, and always crashed. and find the responses after someone goes back to drinking after having made a Big Plan kind of a toothbreaker to chew on.
for me, i was convinced i had entire free choice whether to drink or not, and it took me a couple of years sober to see that my choice-mechanism was impaired in this department.
i'm just sharing this as info about me, since i don't usually post in this forum and you may not "know" me at all, and not as any argument i wish to make.
i very much appreciate the invitation for further questions, and will take you up on it, no doubt!
