Do you believe in Free Will?
If you do tell me what makes you believe it. What are examples? show me a distribution where the bell curve is squared conclusively. Is it possible to not have volition yet lead a life as if you had? Are you happy even if you don't have free will?
@normsmusic
Usually I’d ask for a definition of free will, but if you’re referring to the common understanding, no, I don’t.
When we consider all the millions of factors that preceded and contributed to every decision we have ever made, I wouldn’t call that free will.
Scientists have even discovered that before we do something as simple as flex a muscle our brains have set that action in motion.
@Jeber @normsmusic We can decide, but only on a limited basis..
@Jeber @normsmusic Absolutely.. Quantum Physics also fascinates me..
@gemswinc @Jeber @normsmusic quantum physics FTW!
@normsmusic Do you have a link about how it was disproven? Couldn't find one... 4-5% sounds about right 😉
@gemswinc
Common Interpretation of Heisenberg's Uncertainty Principle Is Proved False
A new experiment shows that measuring a quantum system does not necessarily introduce uncertainty
@normsmusic @Jeber That's interesting... will pursue further..
@normsmusic @gemswinc
I don’t understand it all, but quantum physics fascinates me. I’m becoming convinced that everything we perceive as reality is just a small percentage of what’s really there.
