Free Will is proved by its own analysis. If I can analyse whether I have free will, whether I can reach for the pen, steal the biscuit, then I must have free will. Less in children and animals.
@@ismailchennani4496 I think they mean that since we are able to decide whether or not we believe in free will, there is a choice and so if you can arbitrarily choose one or the other, you automatically have free will
@@ismailchennani4496 yes those factors can have a huge influence on your decision and decision making ability, but couldn't you say that ultimately you could end up picking a solution, to whatever situation or problem, that is not predictable based off one's experiences and environment?
@@ismailchennani4496 maybe for example if a man had a very physically abusive father, how would he act with his own wife and children
@@ismailchennani4496 yeah, but whether or not the choice is constricted to a certain point, the choice is still there nevertheless.
read Subliminal of Leonard Mlodinow
Sounds like -toward the end- you could have segued into the topic of altruism. Another fiction :-)
As a person who doesn't believe in free will, I too don't know anyone else-personally-who believes as I do.
Well said! You might be interested in Robert Sapolsky's book: Behave-The Biology of Humans at our Best and Worst. The guy is brilliant!
People are not equal in our abilities or other traits and how boring would it be if we were? The way we are equal is that we all have conscious experience. I can't think of anything more valuable than that and I can't imagine how ones conscious experience can be more or less important than anyone else's. I enjoyed the video. As if I could have chosen not to...
If you still there True , The same view Free Will not exist .
Wild, this is actually my favorite John G book too and that’s my favorite passage from it as welllllllllllllllll.
I think it boils down to collectiveness and purpose when people are drawn to religion
Hundo percent relatable as I was raised and heavily devoted as a Jehovahs Witness but I’m at the tail end of the exit process. Will totes read this book.
This is actually my least favorite John Green book, but I actually never thought of what you just said: he spends the whole book building her up, and then she turns out to not be perfect, and that's okay because no one is!
Highly relatable
Hundo percent agree with your perspective. I think it’s one of the reasons his writings are so prolific.
I love your enthusiasm and animation lol 10/10 would swipe right
Hmm, this video’s fine. Great book though. Julie’s videos are better. This guy’ll get there though. Eventually.
Great vlog! The play's title reminded me of a Native American Studies book with a similar name and historical outlook, check it out: www.hup.harvard.edu/catalog.php?isbn=9780674011175
