why is it looking into the abyss?...this is where the fun starts. can free will be explained mathematically?
anywhere where the outcome of an action approaches a -->100% reliability of certain outcome is where free will does not exist. (these limitations are determined through repetitive experience)
according to this, only physical laws fall into the godly restrictions where free will cannot be applied.
if we have no conscious understanding of physical laws then we are truly free to chose...but then existence itself is not understandable.
that said:
Free Will & Determinism
"Consciousness seems to be intimately and inescapably tied to the perception of the passage of time, and indeed, the idea that the past is fixed and perfectly deterministic, and that the future is unknowable. This fits well, because if the future were predetermined, then there'd be no free will, and no point in the perception of the passage of time."
considering we perceive the passage of time...free will exists.
