The True Freedom is an utopia, our lives are a collection of choices, let's pick something trivial: while you're walking to your work you have two ways to reach there, well, once you choose for one you've lost the chance of having both.

But surely, in order to *choose* not to be bound by influence, you must be somewhat aware of that influence. However, there will always be influences being imposed upon our mortal minds which we will never be aware (if you don't believe me, read every 7th letter of the first post of this thread and tell me it doesn't say "Ayhja is a nice guy, but his mom's rack is nicer").
The coin flip is beautiful because it denies all the unconscious factors that distort our decision making. True freedom.
