Is Free Will an Illusion? Scientists, Philosophers Forced to Differ...

I completely agree with you bro. Free will is there, but naa daghan wala kasabot unsa ang purpose sa free will, so policies are intended to govern us to maintain peace.

illusion? i don't think so.
it is us, humans, who create constraints. mao ning naay mga balaod ug policies nga niexist nga atong gisunod.
ang purpose? to maintain order.
maong makaingon guro ta nga limitado ra atong freedom... it's because of those.
kay if wala na sila, ambot lng... gubot jd sigurado. because we are all capable of doing anything, good or not. and i believe THAT is free will. right there.

free will an illusion in what sense?

[ozpinhead]

i guess you can have free will but you cannot always use it.
free will is like you are in a crossroad but their are times where you can only have one path to take.

Spoiler!

according pud sa quantum mechanics... i.e. if we go deeper to the atomic--or subatomic--level wherein dili na mo-apply ang atong nakat-unan bahin sa Newtonion mechanics (e.g. Newtons laws), ang result sa kada experiment kay lain-lain, as in dili na ta makakuha og pattern so mas lisud i-conclude...matawag na nga free will. Kay kung magsige lang gihapon og balik ang data bisan kapila giusab ang experiment pasabot ana ni-behave ra jud diay ang particle sa kung unsa ang gisugo ni NATURE, GOD, or WHOEVER niya, thus, no free will

[Conde_Vergonze]

I can't answer this one. I have no free will to do so

[poloi123]

i have a will... but it doesn't come for free..

[janvier]

in my own point of view, in which, i hope im wrong...
if you'll try to look at it in a small picture, its a NO...you are free to do whatever you want without seeing or feeling the limitations of it..but its a different story if you have a BIG picture to look at...someone out there manipulating and controlling everything and in a single snap, thay can take it away..
