You have free will to believe there is free will. This is determinism. None of anyone's business I suppose but why does it trouble you? Things are per...

Intuition. Guesses. Will. Theories. Etc? I suppose the premise of any does boil down to either a fact or a non-fact. True or false. Accurate or inaccu...
