Question

Give examples of how we are physically free but morally bound.

Answer 1

Explanation:

• To be entirely free, or to act on your own free will, you must be able to act in whatever way you want.
• If you can't help but act in a certain manner, your activity isn't free.
• While it is widely accepted that humans have the ability to understand and act rationally and morally as rational and moral agents, the common causal rules that regulate all human activities and responses are unquestionable.
• This tension is the source of the true issue of how we are free.

• Original agent causation through the power of the will is likewise a no-no, as it just adds to the complexity of the mind-body dilemma.
• It's simple to see why the mainstream media redefines 'freedom' when there's no clear solution and simply garrulous intellectual debate.
