That's pussiology victim talking son.  Go ahead and keep you 14 inch pipe cleaner arms if you want.  Weak or Strong, it is a choice and your choice is clear.

the planets are all on paths which were determined billions of years ago. 

oceans, mountains, meteors, animals, life...

With a big enough computer, one could analyze the big bang and predict what would happen, right?   

Everything is a result of upbringing and innate 'how we are built'.   We have free will, but the decision making process is ingrained in us, down to the random abnormalities (bonehead things we do).

so I'm a beilever in pre-determined, but we exercise free will too... it's just that an analyst with enough RAM could predict it accurately.

im wondering if theres a way to be undeterministic. perhaps not possible , i maybe overlooking something. everything can be predicted if all variables are plugged into a good enough computer

i like the quote that said "nothings special its all just unfolding of the given".........this is true perspective i couldnt say it much better or smarter


saying its all predetermined is true ,youll agree if your smart enough

those who disagree need to work on cognitive skills

You didn't start this thread of your own free will or anything…. you had no say in the matter, right?

You've got to be severely fucking stupid to buy into this nonsense,

his genes determine a blue print of a brain wich will act a certain way

this brain is effected by environment factors wich then leave another blueprint of how it will act

thus no free will everything a person does is chosen by brain mixed wth environment

this could only be incorect if a god were moving the chess peices

We're all in a linear video game, simulation.  I thought Getbig had already discussed and agreed on this in another thread.

According to my observations there is only the illusion of free will.
There can be no free will ultimately.
