    Good work I've never been impressed by inferences to physicalism or determinism from neuroscience

    Muscles are activated by neurons. Neurons activate each other through release of neurotransmitters. It sounds like a fully determined system. Where is there any room for free will to step in?

      Presumably the free will of an agent would decide which muscles are activated by which neurons.

      @@faithbecauseofreason8381 Whatever the brain is doing, some of it takes place within neurons and some of it takes place between neurons. In each case, quite a bit is understood about the biochemistry involved. Does free will somehow cause chemical reactions inside individual neurons to temporarily deviate from the laws of chemistry? Does it make neurotransmitters flow between neurons in ways that are inconsistent with the laws of chemistry?

    Hey could you provide a book list on the channel for different apologetic subjects. Gospel historicity, Jesus’s resurrection, philosophy of religion, etc.

      I usually include such a list in my video descriptions when I cite my sources.

    Under causal closure physcalism, the reliability of inference ceases.
    This would be a critical blow to epistemology of a naturalist.
    Under determinism every thought and syllogism we create, the links we perceive that connect the premises to cnclusion are predetermined.
    In indeterminism, if its random, then how can one be justified in belief?
    Free will seems to be an antimony and hence there is no positive argument for or against it that really succeeds
