Saying there is a choice but that you just happen to choose to follow a set of rules is not evidence of free will. Such behavior has no more free will than a computer program.<BR/><BR/>It is easy to write a computer program that claims it is making a choice, and it can be choosing from a set of reponses, even based on some random phenomenon. But that is not the same as free will.<BR/><BR/>Nor is does our awareness that there are, in principle, alternate actions change the possibility that we are incapable of "choosing" other than the one we do.TOGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14013725548575211617noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29449981.post-1149968991947637952006-06-10T15:49:00.000-04:002006-06-10T15:49:00.000-04:00I don't agree with the original assumption that pr...I don't agree with the original assumption that predictibility is the anti-thesis of free will. You may be predictible, but you always have a choice of whether you want to be or not. That is what free will is, choice to make your own predictibilites, and not someone elses.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
