Good evening gents,
I am having this argument with a christian (a result of discussing the argument from divine hiddeness), in which I am arguing that a someone having a desire (wanting to eat ice cream) plus the ability to satisfy that desire (obtaining ice cream) will invariably lead to accomplish that desire.
With the precaution that no other desire negates the original (not wanting to get fatter from the calories, not wanting to spend the time or the energy to get the ice cream), or that no force/factor negates the ability to satisfy that desire (you're locked in prison).
However, the christian contends that this does not follow.
Your opinion?
