"No free will/determinism" is getting more bandwidth as the neuroscience is so compelling, which has generated a backlash from the religions, institutions, criminal justice system, governments, corporations, philosophers, etc., which depend on this belief.

Re: No Free Will
Ah...an interesting age old debate.
I was introduced to it in my 1st Yr of Philosophy at Uni.
"Free Will vs Determinism"

The "vs" ought to be questioned more. It's the REAL issue in the debate.

Re: No Free Will
Modern neuroscience has shown there is no free will. It is no longer an old debate.

You think there might be just a little evidence in the link I provided? The one you didn't read?

Even if he did have "evidence"....his problem lies in the words "modern neuroscience".IQS.RLOW wrote:Evidence?AiA in Atlanta wrote:Modern neuroscience has shown there is no free will. It is no longer an old debate.
