>God gave men freedom from the will
>the majority of the population doesn't practice this divine freedom
Yes, well, it is bad, isn't it?

Says the one shitposting in his tidy little room, what a great use you made of your will, surely the community will thank you!

The only escape from the Will is suicide.

As much as I highly appreciate that, likewise as if I got a dildo I wouldn't stick up my arse, because it simply isn't good for my health, unlike you OP.

Wrong. The only escape is nirvana, unconditioned reality.

Wouldn't that make you even more free?

According to Schopenhauer that's false.
>Translator’s Note. — Schopenhauer refers to Die Welt als Wille und Vorstellung, vol. i., § 69, where the reader may find the same argument stated at somewhat greater length. According to Schopenhauer, moral freedom — the highest ethical aim — is to be obtained only by a denial of the will to live. Far from being a denial, suicide is an emphatic assertion of this will. For it is in fleeing from the pleasures, not from the sufferings of life, that this denial consists. When a man destroys his existence as an individual, he is not by any means destroying his will to live. On the contrary, he would like to live if he could do so with satisfaction to himself; if he could assert his will against the power of circumstance; but circumstance is too strong for him.]
