I can control them to some degree. But I don't think I experience any sort of spectrum of free will versus determinism. I cannot tell whether my thoughts are free or determined.
~~ Paul
Surely that degree of control you recognise can be thought of as your free will?
I do not make any clear distinction between mind and God. God is what mind becomes when it has passed beyond the scale of our comprehension.
