Originally posted by mmQ So you're basically saying determinism and predetermining are the same thing?
I'm saying in a deterministic, probabilistic or random universe, free will is not possible unless you change the definition to mean something that most people don't actually mean when they feel they are doing something out of their own free will. -

Of course your created it, you just didn't have the freedom to think anything but that. Just like you create the shit that comes out your ass but you don't decide what it's going to look like. -

Originally posted by mmQ I don't think anyone is claiming that compatibalism defines free will to mean we can and do have complete freedom over the things that genetically take place outside of our control. As I understand it, free will as it relates to determinism is defined as freedom over actions and thoughts, limited to what one's genetics can and would ever be able to allow. It's a "limited" free will, or as self described, a determined free will in terms of its boundaries.
Obviously that's where opposing views come down to semantics and how one personally chooses to believe in the true definition of free will. I think it's fair to say that nobody thinks we have absolute free will, in that we can't make ourselves invisible if we willed it, or turn the moon into a big butt.
Free will no matter how you define it, has a boundary. The boundary is is determined by our unique and individual genetics and brain chemistry. A limited free will as I like to call it, and like I addressed, any practical definition of free will, regardless of whether you're a determinist or indeterminist, already has a fixed boundary that applies to every single person. The "outer boundary" so to speak.
Inner boundaries are the limit to which our own brains could ever allow us to achieve or act upon. One could actively try to take measures to prevent themselves from getting a heart disease, but those actions, one way or another, make up the involuntary process that ultimately determines the results.
That's all fine except that you don't have freedom over your thoughts or actions. At all. You might feel like you have more control over your next thought than you have over your blood pressure but you literally don't. Whatever your next thought is going to be is not something you chose, not something you picked out... thoughts simply arise in consciousness. Where is the freedom in that?
Some people might claim "Well it's still your thought," and sure it is but you didnt author it, you didnt choose it, your freewill was not involved in that thought any more than it is involved in any of the other various conscious or subconscious or unconscious processes your body performs. -

Originally posted by mmQ Indeed. I was just answering for myself.
As far as enter, I'd suppose that if he can't even get a date, he'd have an even harder time getting a good looking girl to suck his dick and allow him the opportunity to (try to) jam his pean down their throat repeatedly.
Not to mention any girl that would allow him to do that would do so because they take pleasure in being humiliated and degraded, making the whole thing futile.
If he wants to degrade women and finds a women who enjoys being degraded... Sounds kinda like a win-win. -

Originally posted by mmQ Why do you say that?
If "freewill" is "your genetics responding to your environment" than developing a genetic heart disorder is an example of that so-called freewill.
The problem is the vast majority of people don't feel that getting a heart disorder is something they are doing or freely choosing, they feel like it is something that is happening to them and would correct it if they could. -

Originally posted by Hikikomori-Yume I would be up for visiting Canada.
I was actually considering maybe getting a passport and living there for a while but idk.
How is the weather there?
It's nice in the summer, if you like the nomadic hippie lyfestyle then you could travel west in the winter and live on the BC islands.
Banff weather:
Beautiful place:
The islands are nice too:
