If the human mind is deterministic there's no free will. If it isn't there might be. That makes free will half of a scientific question - science can only rule

- Kim_Bruning 5y agoOddly, nondeterministic systems tend to be statistically more predictable than certain classes of deterministic systems (to wit: a chaotic system is a type of deterministic system). So possibly the opposite is true, you need the human mind to be (mostly) deterministic for there to be free will.
