Free will Argument against Divine Providence

[Edwardo Piet]

Dear Genakus, my first post was an objection to the idea that libertarian free will is possible.

Your objection to my objection was that that was merely my own interpretation of things.

That should be obvious though, I can only interpret things my way, or I wouldn't be me.

I am merely trying to deal with what I consider to be the real issue of free will - the idea that we can somehow have ultimate responsibility of action and ultimate moral responsibility therefore, without determinism. With chance you don't get that. So that interpretation, in my opinion, is a petty and futile interpretation and a waste of time. Many many people really do believe in this world that people, ultimately, when it really comes down to it, have responsibility of action and therefore ultimate responsibility of their own moral action too. This is incorrect.

That is the real issue. I am not interested in what I consider to be your futility and pettiness.

Yours,

HT
