if you truly believe there is no free will, you have to reach two practical conclusions: a) there is nothing you have done, nothing you have earned, that entitles you to anything more than any other person; there is no one who has earned less of a right to have their needs considered than you. b) hating someone makes as little sense as hating an earthquake.

Wrong, it implies morality is subjective and I can do whatever I want. The biologically predetermined trait of intelligence also makes me realize I'm better than others and am entitled to everything they have by virtue of my superiority to their biologically predetermined inferiority.
>b) hating someone makes as little sense as hating an earthquake.
The instincts for hatred are hardwired and if stimuli excites it then obviously it has a deterministic cause.

yes, and because the belief in "free will" is basically a faith belief, it means the entire system of capitalism is a faith-based system. We literally live in a theocracy, the Theocracy of the Self.

If there is no free will then there is no point in arguing with people. You cannot convince them of anything because there is no independent rationality to appeal to. They will blindly follow their programming. Or do you talk to your computer and expect it to listen?

yes, the "self" is empirically indeterminable, and philosophers have been going round and around it for millenia, as you know. Therefore, "choosing" and affirming a "self" is an act of faith, and implementing a system of possession, property, control, punishments, and rewards around the existence of a "self" is the implementation of a system of fait, i.e. a theocracy.
Capitalism is a theocracy.

Your conclusions are defeated by their own supposed premise. If there is no free will, any course of action we take, whatsoever in any context, cannot have been our "own fault" in the sense that we could have done otherwise, but did not, because the course of action we took was predetermined or otherwise beyond the independent control of the "will", INCLUDING our own moral judgements of others. Nothing "makes sense", nothing has to "make sense", and we have no obligation whatsoever to pursue "sensibility". KYS

I feel like the idea of free will is best described as the "ability to do otherwise."
Given some set of inputs, could one personally make a choice other than what they did make, or with those inputs was that choice guaranteed?
Even if we grant truly random quantum mechanics, which I personally do, this means a choice on some large enough timescale won't be 100% predictable, but it's not as though the individual person could control those inputs anymore than he could in a purely deterministic non-random universe.
Over short timescales, quantum mechanics doesn't affect the macro scale well enough to have any impact on brain activity, as far as we can tell, so regular determinism is still in effect.

The question I have is whether he goes to explain in the video how he believes one *could* affect quantum randomness, both in a way that's personal so that one could have "free will" and also how it would be able to affect local timescales in a way quantum affects don't currently seem to matter on macroscopic levels.

well, many say they believe in God because they feel it, or it talks to them, or vice-cersa, so, ya know, "free will" falls right into that imaginary box or non-empirical determination. It is therefore an act of faith to chose to believe in it.

It's a huge leap of blind faith from the actual data and evidence to claiming life came from nonliving material then believing on blind faith that is the common ancestor of all life forms. That's not science, it's your religious creation myth you were indoctrinated and programmed to believe is "science". Nothing even remotely close to that is ever observed and it violates known laws. Your distorted definition of religion not only makes many religions not religions, but denies your own religious beliefs are religious in nature, your blind leaps of faith you don't even realize are leaps of faith. It's so tiresome talking to you evolutionist zealots, you people never learn.

Abiogenesis is a different theory than evolution.
I understand this is confusing, but evolution works on things that are already alive, which can adapt and evolve.
If you accept natural selection, and you accept speciation, you accept 100% of Darwin's theory of evolution.
It's made testable predictions and those have come true, so it's been vindicated yet again.

Has your religion done anything that the science of evolution has? Any testable claims? Falsifiable hypotheses? No. It's just faith.

You're so stupid. Natural selection only selects from information already present. You stupid retards never know what you're even talking about.

Evolution theory is just schizo talk masquerading as scientific, and the dimwits and midwits are too stupid to ask questions or think critically.

Do you have any questions as to the function of natural selection or speciation? I'm sure I'd be happy to answer those.

Evolutionists literally say "it takes too long" to prove evolution, which is why they have to call variations within a kind evolution and act like that proves man from apes or from fish or that all life came from a common ancestor.

Evolutionists are the dumbest people in the world and their religion is the dumbest blind faith creation myth; it's on the same level as thinking the earth is flat.

No you.
Can you define "kind" for me? Why not show me two different "kinds" that scientists think are related but you think aren't?

As for humans being in the ape family, I'd challenge you to classify apes in such a way that includes all apes except humans without specifically mentioning people. If you want genetic proof, look into androgynous retroviruses. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC8781664/
Quote from the article:
>As was seen, the core notion of common descent and the heuristic rule that similarity implies common descent, have led to the emergence of the endogenization-amplification theory, which has become the dominant view of the origin of genomic retroviral-like sequences. The finding that large numbers of ERV elements are shared at orthologous loci in different species, strongly coheres with the combination of common descent and EAT. Furthermore, this view received unanticipated corroboration from the discovery of TSDs flanking many ERVs.
Basically it's saying common decent has solid grounded genetic evidence that is best explained through natural selection and evolution.
