In which the age-old and perilous error of mistaking effect for cause is gently dissected, revealing how religion and morality have built their dominions upon this subtle confusion. With delicate scrutiny, free will and causality are unmasked not as truths but as comforting fictions, and the soul’s innocence is restored by casting off these imagined chains that bind us to blame and purpose.
