crowTrobot 2 Posted June 6, 2006 Author Share Posted June 6, 2006 If everything is based on chance, then I am not sure how anything at all can be known? If everything going on is by chance, then what you are thinking is the result of chemical reactions in your brain, so that it is by "chance" that you are thinking what you are thinking. There is no basis for knowledge. How can there be any causal relationship between any events at all if everything is random and by chance?not sure what exactly you're asking. the only thing in nature that appears to be truly random is what happens in quantum mechanics (on extremely small scales) when an isolated system in a mixed state collapses (or appears to collapse) to a single state. on larger scales virtually everything in nature DOES appear to be causal and not random. if you are referring to randomness in QM the answer to your question probably boils down to decoherence, which is the most popular current theory of why we experience a causal "classical" world without large scale quantum randomness.if you are asking if and/or how we have free will then the answer is nobody knows. free will could be illusional.

crowTrobot 2 Posted June 7, 2006 Author Share Posted June 7, 2006 you didnt watch the movie very well thenyou've never shown any comprehension of what the issue with free will and an all knowing being is, let alone address it. the (muddled) philosophy in the movies doesn't address it either.
