[The term “free will” appears to encompass the potentials inherent in something1V (that is, the potential of an object that I may choose1V) and consciencespecified1V.
The realm of possibility is monadic. Elements may be distinguished but not separated.]

[That is enough of Descartes.
The time has come for a comparison between the intersection of the thought experiment where I choose ‘something’ and the message underlying the word ‘religion’.]
[The world out there is excluded by the normal context of Descartes’ thought experiment3H plus the normal context of his own existence as the seat of doubt3V.]
[Both existence (as something independent of my thoughts)1V and my mind (as a container of thoughts)1H belong to the realm of possibility.
They have the same structural character.
They have different normal contexts.]

[My speculation, of course, stands outside of Descartes’ Age of Ideas.
Both something independent of what I think1V and myself as a container of thoughts1V belong to the realm of possibility.
That means that they are upwellings in a monadic sea.
These upwellings are like two ends of a string that tie together into a knot.]
[So what is the single actuality that is the intersection of Descartes’ determination2V and his thoughts that situates himself as a container of doubt2H?
It is the heart of Descartes.]
[Can Descartes’ formula be framed as an intersection with the same structure as the thought experiment where ‘I choose something’?
The fact that I think serves as a thought experiment3H.
What I think2H emerges from and situates my potential as a container of thoughts1H.
I am3V is the seat of what I think, which, in the case of Descartes, is doubt3V.
My determination of myself, as the seat of ‘what I think’2V, both emerges from and situates a possibility that is independent of myself as a container of thoughts1V.]
