Q. Why Free will is an illusion?
Free will might be an illusion created by our brains, scientists might have proved. Humans are convinced that they make conscious choices as they live their lives. But instead it may be that the brain just convinces itself that it made a free choice from the available options after the decision is made.
Q. Do we have free will if God knows everything?
God is omniscient and His knowledge is timeless—that is, God knows timelessly all that has happened, is happening, and will happen. Therefore, if He knows timelessly that a person will perform such-and-such an action, then it is impossible for that person not to perform that action.
Q. What are the constraints to free will?
Free will means lack of constraint on choice. Internal constraints limit one’s mental ability to choose. External constraints impose situational or social limits on choice. Scientific and religious constraints can both reduce perceptions of free will.
Q. Why Free will is important for moral responsibility?
If (PAP) is true, then moral responsibility requires free will (in the sense that involves alternative possibilities); and if causal determinism rules out such alternative possibilities, it would thereby rule out moral responsibility. Therefore, if no one has free will, moral responsibility does not exist.
