Given two boxes, one with a gold ball and one with a silver ball, what are the odds of choosing a gold ball?
There are people on this board who can't get this correct

>choosing
Either 1 or 0 because we have no free will and the universe is deterministic. Read Dennett, retard.

Are the boxes transparent? Can I look in the boxes before choosing?

What if after you choose, Monty Hall appears and opens the box you didn't select, revealing the gold ball. Then he offers you the option of switching boxes. Should you take his offer? What are your odds of selecting the gold ball if you switch boxes?

You want to have your cake and eat it too. That shit is intellectual Nihilism. If you have to act every day like something exists and you can't ignore it then it exists.

Nihilism is the scientifically supported position, christcuck. Your life has no point. Your brain isn't magic. You have no say in your actions. Materialism is true. Science is real. The Earth is round. Vaccines work. Gender is a social construct. IQ is fake. Intelligence is not genetic. The Jews are normal people. Conspiracy theories aren't real. Corporations aren't out to get you. Trump lost. Get real, retard.
