>>11373508This is a science board, not a religious board. This definition of free will is not scientific.
If something at all has total freedom from external constraints, it must be entirely self-contained. It cannot be anything within reality, it must be the entirety of reality. I happen to believe that reality is an entirely self-contained, self-configuring, self-processing meta-language distributed over the whole of itself, at all levels of existence, that we are endomorphic images of God acting as his agents to shape reality to his liking ... but that is another matter.
