Determinism

“Simply put, compulsion/determinism means our choices are controlled by external forces. Reformed teaching says our choices are indeed determined in that they have a cause, but Calvin maintained that the cause is the inclination of our will.” - C.Post

“Chesterton’s asylum example also applies to a recent article published at Phys.org about a scientist who has written a book to convince everyone that humans don’t have free will.” - Breakpoint

Determinism says “everything is fully caused and explained by the past and laws of nature, meaning human actions result entirely from the external factors…. Is our world truly deterministic? And if so, would this imply we lack free will?” - LA Times
