Well, rather than just 'not accepting,' why don't you give an example of this proposed freedom, and provide an argument for its validity?
I'm not proposing any particular usage. I'm just trying to understand how you justify your extraordinary claim that the word 'free' cannot be used to describe 'will'
in any possible context. It's an astounding claim about word usage that
demands justification.
A clear and unambiguous logical argument is what's needed.
You ignore all clear unambiguous arguments that are given, even if you happen believe that I haven't, clear unambiguous arguments are included in the articles I have provided.
Instead of actually reading what is said, and addressing the relevant points, you complain that I repeatedly post articles.... articles that happen address your questions!
Nor is it, as you dramatically like to put it, 'an astounding claim'.
For instance, how hard is it to grasp the basic concept of - 'the word is not the actual thing it refers to?'
The word ''moon'' is not the moon itself.
The word ''God'' is not God itself.
The term 'free will' is not free will itself, regardless of common references and word usage.
Despite common references to 'God' - including the features, attributes and wishes of God - the thing being commonly referred to as 'God' most probably does not exist.
Word use per se, semantics, prove nothing.
''If the argument is valid but the premises are not true, then again the conclusion may or may not be true, but the argument can't help us decide this.''
So I ask you again, AntiChris: how is freedom possible within a determined or deterministic system where the parts cannot do otherwise in any given circumstance, but the decision and consequent action that is determined by circumstances and events?
Where does freedom lie within a determined system? Can you explain? Keep in mind that a reply consisting of various version of 'that is how words are used'' does not prove anything, not the existence of God, or free will.
