No. As you said and I agreed potential isn't actual. Yes. God cannot change but it can cause change. He can only perform one eternal act.

I did before asking question. People just say different things. In fact, this is a hypothesis that cannot be tested because of the existence of the ho...

Could you please provide any reference for quantum entanglement of everything?

Good. I agree. Yes. Pure actuality is a noun. I use pure to stress that God is actual in all His attributes. Yes, you can say that pure actuality is G...

Potentiality generally refers to any "possibility" that a thing can be said to have. Actuality, in contrast to potentiality, is the motion, change or ...

That was different argument.

Huh?

Yes. We don't need free will up to here. So we can make rational decision in a situation. Free decision could be in favor or against rational decision...

No, worst option of course exist. The point is the worst option is not worst one if a thought, showing that we have free will for example, intervenes ...

We are talking about immediate consequence rather than long term one.

I don't understand what you are trying to say. Do you agree with my example and the fact that free decision leads to absurdity when we can make ration...

These two problems are unresolved for me: (1) What is the use of free will? and (2) Conscious decision is impossible. For example, when I talk with pe...

Well that then is a rational choice rather than free one.

Think of the following example. You like vanilla ice cream more than chocolate one. Of course choosing vanilla ice cream is a rational choice. You buy...

You get the point. One of course can argue that one can choose worse option when he practice his freedom.

I am 49 and I am bored with everything. Life is empty without meaning as it is for me now.

I am asking what is the using free will considering the fact that it always allows us to choose the worst.

Yes. we can start a chain of causality if a particle can do it. We know it internally.

What is your opinion about OP?

There are of course better or worse options. I like vanilla ice cream more than chocolate one.

The issue that I am raising is that free will is the only ability that allows us to do the worst, so what is point of having it. I like this more than...

No, there are only two sorts of decision making: rational and free decision. We always follow our emotions in any situation. Without emotions we depre...

Rational decision is picking up the best options after prioritizing them. The process of prioritizing is done using weighting. I like this one me, thi...

I think I should expand on rational decision. We don't need freedom for rational decision. Free decision and rational decision are in fact different. ...

Movement is not discrete but continuous.

You are right. There are many paradoxes. But I think we are discussing about the paradox related to the runner.

t=x/v where x is distance, v is speed and t is duration. Does it take shorter duration if the distance is shortened and speed is constant? Yes. Theref...

To me constraint just limit options whether they are external or internal. You cannot do that because of shame then one option is gone. You cannot do ...

So you didn't get my point?

We are not talking about fighting but a paradox which is the result of foreknowledge, our knowledge of foreknowledge and free will.

So God wouldn't tell us about our future act because He is all loving. I don't understand.

Brain is a chunk of matter. So whatever rule apply to matter apply to brain too. Brain is just very sophisticated.

I already mentioned: "But the information contained within a brain cannot be more than all stimuli it has had."

But the information contained within itself cannot be more than all stimuli it has had. Brain consists neurons. Neurons are connected with each other....

Could you please tell me what a brain process when it is isolated? Can you program a brain without external stimuli?

Yes, the brain is processing all experience, etc in later stage of life., while being isolated from sensory system.

SO He can and cannot lift the stone at the same time.

I am aware of that. But the paradox is resolvable considering the fact that we need shorter duration for shorter distance. I should have written Self-...

External stimuli.

Why not?

So would He reveal the truth about our future acts to us? Yes or no.

Consider all "1" similar.

He needs to prove because there are curious human beings who are judgmental. How I could know the person I meet now or after death is God who has fore...

How God could prove that He is omniscient then?
