[In the case of giving up smoking, the overt behavioral change of unforced conversion appears identical to the change induced by forced conversion.

Progressives do not see that there is an immaterial difference.

Why?

They are committed to a materialist ideology.

Big Government Liberalism is the Materialist Ideology that won the Cold Battle Among the Enlightenment Gods (1945-1989), otherwise known as ‘the Cold War’.

Is it no better than the material ideology that lost the war?

Satan casts out Satan.

Yet, “his” house still stands.]

[Smoking tobacco cigarettes_2H is attractive_1H. It interrupts repetitive patterns of negative thoughts.

Smoking tobacco cigarettes_2H is dreadful_2H. It ruins my lungs.

The contradiction may empower the potentials_1V underlying my choice_2V.

Thus, information_3H becomes available to I, seat of choice_3V, only indirectly.]

The mirror of the world_3H conjures something_2H within my desire_1H.

Published health concerns appear in the mirror of the world_3H.

What is this something_2H?

It is dread_2H.]

[The intersection is sort of strange.

I, seat of choice_3V needs information.

Yet, information comes from the mirror of the world_3H.

The mirror of the world_3H contextualizes desire, a content-level potential in me_1H.]

[I, seat of choice_3V, practices reason.

Reason calls for information.

Information comes from the mirror of the world_3H.

Health-related information comes from the thought experiment_3H.]

[My choice_2V increases my responsibility_3H(2H(to take care of myself and retrain my dispositions) and freedom_2H)1H)) (by expanding my potential for good health).

I, seat of choice_3V, indirectly responds to the call by reason_3H.]

[I, seat of choice_3b, may or may not notice when the mirror of the world_3a admonishes desire_1a.

When it does, the interscope turns into an intersection.

My values_1b originally justified the satisfaction of my desire_1a for relief from repetitive negative thoughts.

Now, the mirror of the world_3H says that smoking is bad for my health.

My desire_1H still wants a cigarette.

If I value_1V my health, then I must choose_2V differently.]

[My potentials are inclusive and contradictory. The call_3H does not directly contextualize all the current potentials in me. It contextualizes one_1H.

The calling potentials_1H may not support the current choice_1V.

In the example of smoking, the mirror of the world_3H admonishes the potentials in me_1H.

It tells me that my desire_1H is dangerous.]
