Sinister Piffle #6 – Epistemology Series – The Free Will Superposition
Oh free will, everyone's favorite topic! In this episode of the Epistemology Series we discuss the common positions on free will and possibility of free will being an abstract phenomenon, similar to knowledge. We also brush up against the crucially important idea of causation in both philosophy and physics, as good, ol' Hume rears his head again. As always, thank you for listening, and I hope you're well!
Correction: I mentioned multiple times erroneously in this episode that Episode #3 was Knowledge and Abstraction; it's episode #4.
