Free WillPosted By Dan Ferrall |
The concept of "Free Will" arises out of the desire to dispell the idea that man (human individuals)has a pre-destined future.
As we increase our ability to correlate various siurces of data, we increase our ability to predict outcomes of many different mico-systems that we are part of or are monitoring.
Our ability to predict how we "will" behave is only limited by our knowledge of our enviroment and our ability to organize and correlate the data.
A person's "free will" is the synthesis of his intinsic makeup and the environment in which he interacts. We are born with an I.Q. quotient, a set of personality traits and a physical body.
If we were born in the United States 30 years ago, there is an 88 percent chance we will beleive there is a god. There is a 70 percent chance we will adopt a Christian religious sect as a spiritual association.
If we were born in India, there is a better than 50 percent chance we will believe in a god. There is less than a 10 percent chance we will adopt a Christian sect for our religious association.
The analogies are endless...
Life is a precious gift...but...things are simply inevitable. Enjoy the gift, but accept the inherent limitations with an open mind.
