ces does not prove free will to be true. The choices must be unaffected by the past or any laws of nature making them unpredictable and completely random.Determinism assumes that there is not, and there never was, any possibility for a complete random act to ever occur in the Universe. Even if the probability of occurring was one in a trillion to the hundredth power and the act occurred a billion years ago, this act would prove determinism to be false. If free will is possible, then it is proven to be true and determinism is false. There is no such thing as free will occurring sometimes in a deterministic world. It cannot be mistaken that if determinism proves true, that there are no choices available for a person to choose. It also cannot be assumed that freedom to choose between varieties of alternatives proves free will to be true. A person can choose to do what they desire to do, but they cannot change the future by something that they have done in the past. They have the ability to change the future to be something other than what it could have been otherwise. For example, if person X decides to go to work instead of sleep in, they are just choosing what the future will be like among all the other alternatives. This is not changing the future but making the future what it will be according to nature and the past.Either free will or determinism must exist in the Universe that can only supply room for one, so whichever one proves to be true, the other is classified as being false. The existence of both ideas is necessary in defining and proving the validity of both theories. In order to define determinism, the principles of free will must be used as holds true for the definition of free will. If an act proves to be completely random, meaning that there was no theoretical way of predicting that act, that would prove free will to be true and determinism false. On the other hand, if any act proves to be somehow affected by the past or a...
