II.   Mind (PSY)

Agree means to harmonize in opinion, statement, or action; to be in unison or concord; to be or become united or consistent; to concur or consent.

The word originates from two (2) Latin words ad meaning “to,with” and gratia meaning “kindness, gratitude, friendship, favor”.

Agree is the fifth of fourteen (14) concepts of Volition. Agree is conceived and chosen in the mind, before it is exhibited in intention or behavior.

As to Agree is equivalent to consent in the mind first as an act of volition, the oration or writing of agreement is merely its confirmation and not consent itself.

As to Agree or Consent is an act of volition, the mind must first have observed the facts upon which consent is presumed.If the mind has not observed the necessary facts required to make a choice to consent, then no agreement or consent can possibly be presumed.

Silence or the absence of objection can never be considered consent unless it can be categorically proven that the mind has been presented with all the necessary facts, time and opportunity to make such a choice.

Any law, statute or maxim which presumes that the mind can consent to something without having observed the necessary facts to make such a choice is an absurdity, defying the laws of logic and is null and void from the beginning.

When it can be proven that the mind has been presented with the necessary facts, time and opportunity to make a certain choice to agree or disagree, then it can rightfully be assumed that a choice has been made for the matter at hand, even if that choice has not been transmitted either orally or in writing.
