It’s just input and output

The brain is behind everything, it’s more than influence it’s the one formulating and making the decision

then how can i make truth claims?

And it makes its decisions in a logical way

Not random

once i make a truth claim, i rise above determinalism

Not always, it can be random

rest in peace @Erik (UA-KR), suicide by overdose of Thorazine today at 8:42pm PST

How can it be random?

What are mental disorders?

you forget to use the logic you have at your deposal thats how

He wasnt on this server but is it ok if i use at @ here for an announcement somewhere

Just differences in the brain

Yeah

Oh

Even healthy people can bypass that rational filter

He left the server

if all choices are logical outcomes, then how come we make illogical choices every day?

This, you’re giving people too much credit

That’s not what I mean by logical

Scientifically logical

Your brain follows scientific laws

It had to

And that means that it can only follow one path

No

even if thats the case, how come we make choices that dont somehow benefit us one way or another and are completely arbitrary?

I don’t know the exact science

But they all have to come from somewhere

because it doesnt exist

there is no science behind free will

only us

It doesn’t need science if it doesn’t exist

which is why you dont know it

because it doesnt need it, so it doesnt have it

Everything has science behind it

It can not need it

false

Can’t*

still false

What doesn’t need science?

nothing
