Hi guys maybe we should all put forth our understanding of what free will is.
Ill start, to me free will means that there can be no consequences for using our will.
If there is consequences then our will is not free.
And
Free will would have no restraints placed on it.
Example: you have apples, oranges and pears placed before you, but you are told that you can only eat the apples and oranges but you are not allowed to eat the pears or you will be punished.
So here you have both restraints and consequences placed on our will.
If our will was really free we should be allowed to eat of all 3 groups of fruit.
This to me shows a difference between free will and choice.
What is really placed before us is a choice and that choice always has restraints placed on in.
Anyway that my take on free will, what way do you guys see it?
