***If that were true, what need is there for free will?***

The road to hell is paved with fallen man’s free will.

“The road to hell is paved with fallen man’s free will.”

If that’s true, then do we blame free will itself for the smooth pavement which comprises said road, or do we blame the judgment of those who exercise such will?

Should we blame God for bestowing free will upon us in the first place, and if we do, isn’t that tantamount to wishing that we were robots?

Is it better to be damned to hell than never to have been afforded the choice to go or not go there in the first place?

I kinda like choices, so I’ll blame myself if I end up in hell. Whatever happens though, I thank God every day for my Earthly life.
