Conscious, sentient, acting agents (a fancy way of saying "animals and stuff") override mere simple physical "determinacy" by means of exercising their will (which transcends the merely material plane. Materialism never has been able to explain non-material categories, and yet it uses them: logic and language being but two examples.) YOU, however, WILL simply be reacting to this challenge at a quark level, and your atoms in wild Brownian motion will compel you to sit at your keyboard and click away, writing Dog Knows What. But, your entire life was determined prior to the Big Bang, so you're not responsible, 'cuz you have no free will. The rest of us do, and we snicker. |
