determinism versus indeterminism
#28
RE: determinism versus indeterminism
I'm not talking about avoiding your own movements. What I mean is avoiding situations you don't want to get in etc. The example Dannett gave was that if someone throws a brick at you, you can duck. You might succeed you might fail. Because we don't know the future. And if its determined then its determined. Its still the same for us as its always been because its either always been determined or always not - I believe?
I mean if its about avoiding anything you might as well talk about 'thought dodging' lol Tongue Dodging your own thoughts. Not really possible! lol.
