    You’re wrong in assuming free will does exist. I’m agnostic about hard line determinism, I just use it as a stand in for the antithesis of assuming there is free will. I’ve said this before, but “free will” assumes a human above nature and a soul like entity. I refer you to the Lemmygrad side for what does exist if there’s no free will.

      When I said, “where am I going wrong?” I was obviously referring to the summary I had just given, none of which included “I assume free will exists”.

      So, were am I going wrong in that summary?

        The summary is pretty much correct, but I can not tell if you have held on to your initial position that compatibilism is correct. One of the first comments science cannot prove the existence of free will, but I have yet to see even a coherent philosophical argument for it.

          You are incorrect about what things I’ve said but it’s become redundant with the other threads so I’m going to stop replying to this particular chain.
