'choosing' thoughts.
#42
RE: 'choosing' thoughts.
I will practically assume the HAVE "free will theory" is based on assumption until I know of any evidence of the existence of free will!

I am not arguing for determinism. Determinism does indeed make free will impossible. But I do not see how indeterminism makes it any more than simply possible just because there are many possible paths rather than one CERTAIN GUARANTEED path.....how on earth does that imply you have any choice in which path you will go down? Just because you could go down A B or C, etc, etc (indeterminism) rather than it HAVING to be an X that WILL happen (determinism) how does that imply or give evidence for free will? How does indeterminism imply free will over physics?

If physics is more random...how does that mean we can control physics?

E.G: If there is a dice that has the numbers 1 to 6 on it...the fact there are 6 possibilites and it could go either one of the 6, rather than ONE that is certain that 'it will go on' how does that mean we have control over the random dice?
