I'm surprised how well an engineer needed to make this device, would actually go ahead and make it with the obvious purpose understood.

Idk, injustice is a human expression and shared between one another as a word. Maybe it doesn't exist or maybe people can still find injustice towards their existence. The meaning of a lot of words can sure take a different shape with

Please, let's not kid ourselves about what actually is life saving intervention for a person. It downplays the need for funding and we're already dealing with a lot of suicides per day.

I agree with mostly everything except when it comes to drugs I’m not impressed. My perspective is that a large crowd of potential buyers must need the “researchers find the new drug results exiting” to actually make their transactions. Simi

I feel like you’re making a straw man argument to my original point. Rules can change, get better or worse and effect society in a little way. I have no problem with that! I’m not saying if someone cannot follow a rule it’s not good. I’m sa

Words are for sharing human expression. Your interpretation of a something being a rule, is rigged when it's not possible for a person to follow it by choice. I think it's best to talk about how people don't have free will an

Rules are not rules when a person cannot not break them because of no control over the events in their life and their genetics leading them to break these rules. I'm not saying it's fair that we don't allow people to be free

See my comments to other replies. The simplest description of the justice system upon society is constructing deterrents for actions decided as bad. The argument that people need to believe in free will to be good people hasn't been pr

I wouldn't view things as hopeless & useless until people completely abandon reason and rational for progressing the system of society. Determinism doesn't make me feel hopeless or useless because I can see faults in a system

You're imposing a nihilistic view upon me. I'm proposing we don't ignore the evidence and make an antiquated system be designed properly.

Why does software update? We want to have it become better and the summation of your comment is imposing a nihilistic view that nothing needs to change if it's all fated to happen. That's contrary to how humans strive for increasi

I'm basically saying, there's no evidence for free will and the evidence that exists shows free will cannot exist. It intrigues me how people understand we had no choice in the life we're born into but people like to assume c

Free will being an illusion is denoting free will isn't real and in the sense that you don't have any control of your life outcomes or actions you take. Research with how the brain functions shows we're unaware of making a de

Both cases are handled by a punishment modal that assumes humans have free will. I wish we lived in a society that handled these cases with a rehabilitation modal and understanding free will is an illusion by determinism & how the brain
