Philosophical Question Time!
Can predestination and free will coexist?
@RickiTarr So, there’s the broad strokes ”you are destined to…” version, and the “everything that has/will happen could/will not happen any other way”.
The latter means there is no free will, and if you (dis)believe in free will, there was simply no other way for you to think otherwise at that moment.
The former means your destination is set, you just get some say in the path (even if you have no clue that’s where you’re heading).
I hope for the former and fear it’s the latter.
@LukeF @RickiTarr Or, if you take the Copenhagen interpretation all things DO happen. The system just bifurcates at that point. Which could be predestination. You just do not know which path of the infinite bifurcations your consciousness will be in.
All hail Borges!!!
