Are we determined or free?
I'm tying not to make the same mistake twice, so correct me if I'm wrong, but has the concept of determinism doesn't appear to have been argued yet.
There are many types of determinism that could be examined. In order to avoid the issue of God, I would like to exlude theological determinism, since it presupposes God's existence. That determinist theses I would like to discuss are logical determinism, causal determinism, and bio-environmental determinism (combining biological, cultural, and psychological determinism in order to avoid the nature vs nurture debate).
Who feels fated, who feels free?
