Internal debating lenses

I shoot primes... so I'm sort of wondering what's drawing me to the 24-120/4. I think it's just the variability and how easily it can get me out of the house when depressed.

My primary focus should be a NIKKOR 35/1.4 and 105/2.8 MC since that covers some beautiful portrait, video and macro applications plus. Additionally, the total cost would be more like $1400 if all is bought fresh and new.

I'll be honest, the 24-120/4 is still an enticing lens. It just isn't specialized toward my desired uses. ...but it would definitely serve my mental health. It would do so in ways that a cheap cropped or mft camera and lens collection could also accomplish.

So, if I were to consider a range of lenses I could use for something like automotive work, I would say the 35/1.4 plus 105/2.8 as prime investments and possibly a TAMRON 150-500/5-6.7 for track shooting and car parades like the Woodward cruise.

Frankly, fast primes in 35, 50 and 105 macro would be a perfect collection for shooting cars up close and capturing small details. Same can be said about their uses with human subjects. I do love primes and their dreamy creamsicle bokeh. They're fun to play with.

God and "free Will"

I believe in the concept of god serving a collective social and societal purpose. It's a valuable concept which introduces a basic guide to morality and community-consciousness as well as collaborative purpose.

I do not believe in the deity. I don't believe there's an omnipotent, singular being. I believe there's a community-consciousness which can easily be mistaken as an intentional actor... because we're a socially hardwired species genetically evolved to serve and be served by community.

As for individual free will, I firmly believe in Robert Sapolsky's views that we are nothing more than a biological machine perceiving, processing and growing from all our lived experiences and social influences. I don't believe we have free will per se. I believe we have a complex rationalizing mind which is presented billions of inputs to use for decision-making which can lead us to either individual or community survival, thriving and progress... depending on what our lives have taught our minds too prioritize and value.
