I would disagree with Europe moving on (if it’s in terms of racism) as every country I have lived in I have experienced extreme racism. England is mor...

I think the worlds problems has always been there, countless people have been affected by climate change, racism (systematic/institutionalised) for ye...

hmm, would you reject the cosmological argument for the existence of God? As the main principles use causality as a means to prove His existence
May 21, 2021 at 21:04
understood

thats an interesting way to interpret a dream
May 21, 2021 at 20:52
do you believe as humans we possess free will was basically the topic of discussion, so you’re not off the mark at all!
May 17, 2021 at 16:20
not in agreement with the question you posed, it is like the argument of the via negativa where you state what God isn’t to summarise what his actual ...

I think many things can influence our free will, but the fact we are able to act or not act on those influences is freedom of our will
May 17, 2021 at 15:58
thank you for this information! I would not call what is happening a conflict nor a war, it is an oppression...my heart goes out to all those who have...

interesting retrospect
May 17, 2021 at 15:46
what are your thoughts?
May 17, 2021 at 15:44
:lol:
May 17, 2021 at 15:43
thats really interesting, do you believe people have free will?
April 03, 2021 at 19:40
if someone tried to prove I did not have any free will and was successful I don’t know how I would act. Especially as I believe I have autonomy over m...

could you elaborate on the latter, I am not understanding
April 02, 2021 at 23:19
I basically believe what you do today, shapes tomorrow, then the day after etc...
April 01, 2021 at 23:18
yes, partially!
April 01, 2021 at 23:11
ah, I see, well everything I have done I have chosen to do, I am lucky enough to have a job I thoroughly enjoy and wake up doing what I love. But in s...

I say this, as I travel Europe often and experience racism, and realise that many do not have resources to education and experience like I do, I do no...
April 01, 2021 at 23:02
I think in some cases, people do not know any better, the environment they reside in is all they know and fear/conformity can play a role in some choi...
April 01, 2021 at 22:55
I think it can be bad in some aspects, I think it depends on who is viewing it. For example, a teen who is watching porn might create a distortion of ...

in this case I do not believe it is random, something that is created by man and computerised has a set of computed outcomes already and not entirely ...
April 01, 2021 at 01:50
we do make our own choices, I think I may of poorly worded this question! But nevertheless, I am grateful for your perspective, I need to do further r...

I got the idea from an essay I wrote, I had to “assess the claim that human beings are not really free to make moral choices”.
March 31, 2021 at 19:06
No, not in the slightest. Thank you very much
March 31, 2021 at 11:15
that is an interesting notion, thank you
March 31, 2021 at 11:14
yeah, I guess it is quite a broad topic to discuss. I personally just wanted to hear different concepts from as many people to understand it better
March 31, 2021 at 11:10
yes, I agree we all make are own choices. But I think some people are heavily influenced by others and don’t necessarily have complete freedom of will...
March 31, 2021 at 11:01
and do you believe it is an illusion?
March 31, 2021 at 10:56
Ha, it’s okay! I love to hear everyone views and to learn from them.
March 31, 2021 at 01:34
Everyone views life differently due to whatever circumstances they are in or have experienced and nobody has the same experiences. I do not think ever...
March 31, 2021 at 01:31

I will review this, thank you
March 31, 2021 at 01:04
that is a very interesting perspective, thank you for sharing. I was trying to use the quotes as a means to spark the debate on determinism, compatibi...
March 31, 2021 at 01:02
thank you for your insight, I will read up on the “the science of right”.
March 31, 2021 at 00:52
I somewhat agree, I believe that we don’t have complete freedom due to certain laws. albeit, I do not think this infringes our free will. We can freel...
