Zaradis posted:You've said that to nearly everyone in this thread. At some point you should swallow your goiter of pride and maybe question whether or not EVERYONE ELSE is wrong and you're the only person who is right about anything OR if the opposite could be true. But that goiter is obviously massive, so I don't have much hope in your being able to get it down. No like you focus on absurd examples to try and prove whatever point you're trying to make, it's laughable. Specifically, you. "Oh but I was fated to make this post lol!"

So was there a single action of free will that then determined everything else after it? God proved?

Sorry OP I think you're kind of a fucktard and I don't buy into your fatalist bullshit. If being an existential nihilist gets you through your day, more power to you.

Really this comes down to how time works. Could Caesar have not crossed the Rubicon? He thought so, but he was wrong. The whole world is based on the fact he did, and he could have done no other thing. simultaneity is relative. That means that there is no cosmic clock that blesses an impossibly thin 'present' and makes things past non-real. Because of this we are forced to conclude that we, seemingly in possession of the present, in actuality have the same freedom of action as Caesar did. We are vcr tapes that can watch ourselves, once.

Everything that will happen does happen, but we get to decide our own 'will' You seem very confused in your "agreement", unless you have entirely changed your mind over the course of this thread.

Your future is happening simultaneously with you past and your present. If you decided to pick up a gun right now and blow yourself away, then that was what you were always going to do and there was no changing it. However, you still had to have decided to do it. If you didn't decide to do it, then it wouldn't have happened and never could have.

It's about the way we perceive ourselves subjectively.

Concepts without percepts are empty; percepts without concepts are blind. Do you understand? I know I didn't say SPACETIME!!! ten times, but just try to take some time and think about what the above sentence means.
