Free Choice
Question
1. Is there an experiment (not a philosophical argument) that can prove free choice / determinism unequivocally?
2. Is it coherent for a materialist to believe in free choice?
Answer
- I can’t think of such an experiment. I explained this at length in my book The Science of Freedom.
- 2. It is logically coherent, but scientifically unlikely.
