IF your actions have causes how are they free?
if uncaused, how willed?
Freewill seems an invention of those who require a reason some can be held accountable for their actions by a court of justice, after all if everyone is always doing exactly as the true nature of reality dictates for them, there is no choice and no reason to hold anyone accountable....but which is it?
it has come crystal clear to me that we are not different from any other force of nature...these forces are moving at speeds that are incomprehensible to us. for example a movie film is 24 frames per second which is fast enough to cause us to see continuous motion where none actually exists...only still images are there.... but the movement of atoms and electrons is more like a billion billion frames per second and it takes us about 1/3 of a second to catch up to what is going on...a very long lag time... we cannot change anything in motion, because we never can react fast enough...and our reactions are all based in natural forces in motion as well....
since no one can alter a single instance of what lead everyone to the very present moment, no one can ever be anywhere but where they find us all....now.... and every now is the same...we are always at the end of a long series of steps which no one can undo or redo.... this present moment, this now is the end of the chain and we are always finding ourselves there...and no other place.... so I must conclude that we are always exactly where we find ourself...always...no freewill. no free choice... only the mix of forces which brings all things to where they must be...even if some are random.-- I had to write this
