(January 7, 2015 at 6:33 pm)IATIA Wrote: If we do not have free will, then everything that has happened will continue, status quo. The real question is whether or not the accepted knowledge of no free will would change anything. That would be answered by the ultimate question, "Is this a deterministic universe?".
I don't understand the last part. Also,
I understand determinism => no free will, but I don't understand the opposite direction.
The fool hath said in his heart, There is a God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.
