The Dilemma of Free Will
from Philosophy for All · host Joshua
Send us Fan Mail"I want to be free"... But do you? What do you mean by free will? In this video, I question the assertion made by many people that they want to be free, and argue that in doing so, they actually make themselves less free than their prior state. This concept of free will, and more importantly the desire for free will, is developed in the works of Dostoevsky and Berdyaev, and in this video I attempt to make their literary argument into more concrete and philosophical illustration. --------------------------To check out more about my content feel free to go to my YouTube Channel Philosophy for All to access clips and extra discussionsSupport the show--------------------------If you would want to support the channel and what I am doing, please follow me on Patreon:www.patreon.com/christianityforallWhere else to find Josh Yen:Philosophy YT: https://bit.ly/philforallEducation: https://bit.ly/joshyenBuisness: https://bit.ly/logoseduMy Website: https://joshuajwyen.com/
