In your opinion what causes christians to believe in Jesus

[BrianSoddingBoru4]

But that’s just kicking the can down the road. How can we be sure that what feels like volition or motivation or autonomy actually is so? If I hold onto the plate, mayn’t it be that I was always going to hold on to the plate? Likewise if I drop it and let it shatter?

Well, the short answer is that turtles all the way down is unscientific. If we cannot falsify determinism because determinism predicts that anything that looks like free will is itself determinism, you basically have two options: either you amputate the excess repetitions with Occam's razor and make the theory falsifiable or you abandon the question as a scientific one altogether.

It’s not a scientific question, but a philosophical one.
