| >but that doesn't mean it isn't up to us to spread information Something being "up to us" implies and necessitates free will. With mere casuality/determinism nothing is up to us, everything is just another reaction caused by some initial condition. Logically, we can't have it both ways... >and we will likely take it upon ourselves to investigate and disseminate, and hopefully start a larger conversation You can't "take it upon ourselves" since we have no agency, if we have no free will. >and hopefully start a larger conversation Without free will, we can't start anything that not already casually chained to start, so predetermined anyway. Whatever we/you do or don't do can't change anything (even the idea that we can "do or not do" something is an illusion. Without free will we can only do what the casuality chain has us do and think what we're predetermined to think about it). |
