  • Sam Harris - morality without free will
     OP - August 23, 2011, 10:02 PM
    Is that possible?

    I dont get it.
    Little Fly, Thy summer's play
    My thoughtless hand has brushed away.

    I too dance and drink, and sing,
    Till some blind hand shall brush my wing.

    Therefore I am a happy fly,
    If I live or if I die.

    Why wouldn't it be?

    And, um, how are you defining free will here?

    Free will - as in our actions and decisions are ultimately determined by us, I'm guessing.
    "The ideal tyranny is that which is ignorantly self-administered by its victims. The most perfect slaves are, therefore, those which blissfully and unawaredly enslave themselves."
