Extra! Extra! Read All About It! A boy bombs Birdville, USA To discover that he already did that Twenty years ago! Poo-tee-weet?

How about a blog entry that involves less concentration on the Big Question than the others because as I have discovered, I've branched this question into far too many intracacies and optional outcomes that it has spun into a web of criss crossing ideas in search of too many variables for even an extended matrix. I know I am lacking to derive a competant essay out of this question anyway. The difficulty is finding a question to actually discuss. Hopefully, this will help me pinpoint something. Anyway, to the novel mobile! So, I appreciated the messages out of the novel more than the novel itself. If the novel had been written in the fashion of the last chapter and the several pages before, I would have enjoyed it much more. Also, if the style carried on further into a longer chapter, that would have been better. I feel it ends abruptly. Still, perhaps that is all that needed to be said at the end of the novel. Ha! I now think about my Big Question and realize that after the foreword of being a bit off-topic here, I find Slaughterhouse-Five to have perhaps the most straightforward answer to my question. Billy Pilgrim acts as he is supposed to. Rather than free will, people just act as they are supposed to. So, Billy Pilgrim obviously does not act of his own intentions. Simply, he acts according to how the universe is supposed to run. Now I am thinking of The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy when Earth explodes and the main character ends up on Earth Mark 2. There is the moment when he is asked if he would change anything, and he doesn't. Some random person doesn't change the world when he has the opportunity. Things are supposed to go as they are. Does that deny free will though? I don't know. I feel from the Tralfamadorian perspective, the discussion of free will is negligible. So, why am I asking this question at all? Does it matter if people act of their own intentions? It just occurred to me that to commit an act, someone must first intend to commit the act. Regardless if someone is working for someone else's ultimate aims and goals, if they are intending to act, then that is their intention. I guess the only depending factor is if they realize what the endgame is regarding their intention and then their act. Case closed. People do act of their own intentions. The question: do they realize whether or not they are working forward their own goals? And then that is a pretty straightforward question.
