RE: God exists according to the second law of thermodynamics (ft. Pre-Socratics): an argument
I did take that the universe is orderly to be somewhat self-evident, because I think it is in fact self-evident. Instead of being ordered, the contents of the universe could have been random, clumped,

RE: IN DEFENSE OF FREE WILL.
Free will and deterniminsm are contradictory. Either your choices are the results of mechanical processes, or they are in fact your choices. I believe the latter. And just how is this possible? It’s the

RE: Ordering Others to Do Bad Things: Who is to Blame?
There’s isn’t such a thing as moral blame, for this presupposes some kind of consequentialism, in which an action is wrong by virtue of it producing bad consequences, and the evilness of these consequences

RE: A Critique of Molyneux’s *Against the Gods?*
I see no reason to think that knowing a free person’s future actions is logically impossible. God knows such things from the fact that he knows the future, not because he’s making any prediction based

RE: A Critique of Molyneux’s *Against the Gods?*
I’m sure you would’ve been able to read it. It’s free as a PDF and isn’t long for a book. I read it in an hour or less. I link to it at the top of my review. I’m not sure your response to argument 3 tackles

RE: The Polarization Of Wealth And What We Can Do About It
It's a mistake to think that there's a set amount of wealth, and all economic activity only moves it around, and that the gain of one person is the loss of another. Verily, new wealth is always being produced.
