Free Will And The Seven Stages To Christian Maturity

There were two issues that were foundational to this intellectual quagmire I found myself in. First was the problem of universal selfishness--I discovered, to my horror, that all my choices were essentially selfish, and I viewed everyone else through these dark-tinted spectacles as well. I saw no way out of this labyrinth. Not only did my will seem trapped, I was led to believe it didn't exist at all, for our biology book plainly stated that man is a product of his environment and heredity, and thus all choices must be predetermined by outside forces.
