Yeah, like the certainty that if I had been subjected to identical conditions as those that brought an antagonist before me, that I would not have deviated by one atom from their path, and would find myself in the exact same shoes, clothes, skin, mind, and soul.

And we're still just talking about human minds.

Uhh, have you ever heard about this thing called free will?

The conditions alone aren’t what determines a person’s character. It’s also the choices they make along the way.

[-] mad_lentil@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 day ago

Yes ofc, but you're forgetting that I would have the same free will.

[-] MacNCheezus@lemmy.today 2 points 1 day ago

Right, which means that when faced with the same conditions you could still potentially make different choices

[-] mad_lentil@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 day ago

No the free will is identical too

[-] MacNCheezus@lemmy.today 2 points 1 day ago

Then it's not free
