Re: Determinism and Freewill, a simple summary of the problem

Marcus G. Daniels

In a probabilistic universe, of which any given lump of gray and white matter is a part, how does that lump influence its own distributions?   Why should quantum mechanics not apply to the lump?   Determinism is a red herring when it comes to free will!   In the multiverse view, there’s the sin case and the not sin case, a we-never-existed case.  Maybe there’s even a no big bang case?  Different big bang cases?
