All you can say in this site's defence is that it, rather than reality, occupies the warped minds of some of the planet's most twisted people; gods know what they would get up to if it wasn't here. In these arguably insane times, any lessening or attenuation of madness is maybe something to be thankful for.

Or Kill Me / Free will
April 29, 2003, 10:01:50 PM
I'd like to hear some opinions on the question of free will.
I don't believe it could be possible due to the fact that every cause can result in only one effect (no?). This would apply to all energy and matter, including the wads of it we refer to as our brains.
Also, because it's nifty to think about...the future is then completely predetermined. The past is perfectly preserved in the present, the present being nothing more than the past after a series of logical permutations.
Could it be said that all times essentially exist simultaneously then?
Does that even make sense?
I know very little of quantum physics and Heisenberg's uncertainty principle, which I've been told have some important implications on this topic. Since they deal with human perception of events, do they really matter in regard to the premise of my belief( that every event has a definate subsequent one)?
