Life is an illusion and We do not have any choice in our actions. Just like how the planets and stars do their work, we do ours and makes us no different from non-living things.
- CryptoPunk 6y agoLife does not imply free will.
- mensetmanusman 6y agoSome people believe (i.e. have faith) that free will exist, even though it is by definition a supernatural entity. Some people, like what you say, do not have faith in free will. I find it funny when nonbelievers profess to know the truth with such certainty. Why did their carbon atoms have to type this on HN?
- solipsism 6y ago"supernatural" is undefined and it's untestable. You start with meaninglessness, and then you're suprised when rational thinkers say they don't believe in the nonsense?
- mensetmanusman 6y agoIn not sure if you chose to comment on this ;)
- solipsism 6y agoChoices are real. Free will is not.
- mensetmanusman 6y agoSounds like an axiom for a small subset of humans. Like all axioms, unfortunately it can not be proven: https://www.sscc.edu/home/jdavidso/Math/Goedel.html https://www.sscc.edu/home/jdavidso/Math/Goedel.html
- dang 6y agoCould you please stop posting unsubstantive comments to HN? You've been doing it a lot, unfortunately, and we're trying for more in-depth discussion here.
