What I hope to find is some people who would like to explore the ramifications of various Free Will beliefs. I've been participating in the Imdb Philosophy forum but it is extremely low-attended. I've started a few threads there hoping to stimulate some "speculation" on the ramifications of those free will views, but almost no one stays on topic. They simply take it as another thread in which to argue for or against one of the several flavors of "Free Will".
Some topics I'd like to discuss...
- * How would the world/society be different if everyone believed there was no free will? * Are people and society better off believing there is free will? * How has your life changed since "learning" that there is no free will? * I'd like to find a succinct, yet adequate definition of Compatibilism; and to learn more about Compatibilism. I may be enticed into an argument in this area. * What was the primary influence that caused you to believe whatever you believe regarding free will?
I'm no longer that interested in discussing whether or not we have free will. I think I've seen all the arguments, but maybe not. You never know.
