will do in his/her life. Free will is the belief that humans can make decisions every day for themselves without anything interfering with their choice. The best way to describe divine foreknowledge is through the eternity theory of God, the concept that God exists outside of time. The eternity concept is the argument that makes the most sense for Divine Foreknowledge as it is the only way that we can conceive that God is an all-knowing being and allow for humans to have free will.

every step? It was common Greek belief that every man had a destiny, but his free will determined how much he suffered. Many famous heroes in Greek mythology like Odysseus, Orpheus, and Oedipus made bad decisions that caused them great suffering. Oedipus is not a pawn of fate, but rather has a certain degree of free will in his actions and is responsible for all the decisions he makes.

Strawson says that if one is not responsible for anything about themselves, how could they possibly be responsible for something that they did? He also says that when we engage in S-procedures, intentional shaping procedures, we only do it because of certain features of the way that we already are. In the very…

According to Victor Frank the space that lies between Stimulus and Response is choice, or our freedom to choose (D. Ridley, personal communication, February 24, 2018). Regardless of the circumstance or the situation being out of one’s control, one still has the ability to remain in control of self, through conscious decision. According to Frankl’s philosophy, this choice is what makes us human. Frankl himself was dealt a very bad hand and spent his life enslaved and tortured, but he refused…

However, what if the choices we make every day were not as voluntary as we once thought? You would this to be impossible, would you not? I eat when I am hungry, I drink when I am thirsty, I wash myself when I am dirty, I sleep when I am tired. Are these not examples of free choice? Well, according to…

“Free Will” is a philosophical term of art for a particular sort of capacity of rational agents to choose a course of action from various alternatives. However, it is crucial to note that the action that we choose might not correspond to the outcome that we desire as free will is solely pertinent to the course of action, not the result.
