Anyone know any theories arguing for free will?
2007-11-04 09:55:43 · 5 answers · asked by Rob 1 in Society & Culture ➔ Religion & Spirituality
Hume: Compatiblism (Choice without cause)
Multiverse + Occams Razor (determinism irrelevant)
Mind as the function of the brain, electron transmitted messages between synapses, subject to quantum forces (unpredictability)
God said so (Pick a religion....)
Any classic libertarian argument. Try Augustine or Aquinus, or perhaps Descartes.

Since you ask this question I am assuming you were not forced to be here, YOU have the choice to do as you please, God knows what you will do but he lets you go on your way, the problem is the only way to Heaven is to believe in Jesus Christ. Jesus says in John 3:3 except a man be born again he cannot see the Kingdom of Heaven, We are all sinners Romans 3:23 says for all have sinned and come short of the Glory of God, Jesus died on that Cross at Calvery to pay for those Sins, now all you have to do is believe in Jesus and accept his free gift of Salvation. Listen to your heart, It is Christs will that all be saved, everyone on the planet, Hell was made for the devil and his demons, You canbe saved today, right now, just pray this prayer of Faith believing in Jesus, just pray Dear Jesus, I know and confess that I am sinner in need of salvation. I believe you died on a cross at calvery and arose from the grave to wash away my sins, I ask you right now to come into my heart and save me, I pray this Prayer believing in the name of Jesus Amen. If you prayed this prayer with a sincere heart you are now a child of God, rejoice that your name is written in the Lambs book of Life. Jesus will now send his Holy Spirit to come and live in your heart and guide you into all truth. If you have any questions just send me an email, God Bless YOU!!

free will has it's limitations..... as the battle in the spirit heats up... mother nature proclaims there is a sin.... religion itself... and humanity will be judged according to this sin with far greater consequences better than the deceivers of religions have been able to do through war and murder....

God knows what you will do. Just because He already knows it, does not mean that you were forced into your actions. He still gave you the choice.

Cartesian dualism is the only one I know... and it doesn't make a whole lot of sense.
