@nemurin constantine is rolling in his grave
Bruh just get on some Christian server there are plenty of people that can help you there as long as it's a normal one
Its kind of an odd thing i need in pre-tridenterian mass and ritual information
so id have to find some server afilliated with religious history as the texts are sparse on the exact subject
do you all believe in free will
I do, yes
not relevant but I’d like to know
compatibilism is the only one that makes sense
oh alright. Well, how?@vespertilionineVigilante
How do you explain free will
It's when you have an option to choose between different things and it's not predetermined?
its hard to really boldly claim that decisions are more than the output of recursive reaction to the environment and genetics
^ this
but at the same time empiricsm will never be able to determine something with surety
so there will always be room for an inexplicable phenomena in the micro level decisions
Eh
I'm pretty sure we have free will but we're just influenced in favor of some decisions depending on the circumstances
Even if you accurately modeled every process of the brain postulating a thought, which must be different for each individual, you would be left having to explain why the quantum particles that dictate the broader movements are arranged in their particular way
and so on and backwards
i beleive that free will and determinism are not incompatable.
in fact one is needed for the other
how can you make decisions if your environment is not ordered and determined
if your decision just flew away in some non linear time soup then it could be hardly called will at all
^
will is free BECAUSE its determined.
man can do what he will.
but we do not will what we will.
it isn't so clean i think
willing what we will is up to the universe, and thus is constrained and defined.
That makes no sense to me. How is it “free” if the output is result of processes outside of an individuals control.
but this is not free will.
free will is the ability to do what we will.
and we can.
existence is out of your control, its a false dilemma
the question is there some sort of flexed muscle or nerve that directs your will moment to moment
Determinism makes the claim that all actions are caused by beliefs, desires, and temperaments. The problem comes when one's beliefs and desires, for example, come into conflict. Each person must choose their paradigm of thought to break this contradiction. It's in this process that people have free will.
and im partial to the theory that the subconcious makes your decisions ultimately, but it is trained by the concious language and models of the mind
some people define free will more broadly. as though we have some cosmic power to plick at the strings of fate ourselves.
as much as we may wish we did, we dont.
