What is the philosophical debate called that argues whether or not we have a will?
To freshen your memory...
Since we are subject to the laws of physics it is impossible that we have a will. For if our entire body including our thoughts are made simply from molecules governed by the laws of momentum & mass etc...then how can we possibly "choose" to change the course of those molecules if they must follow the laws of physics?
Anyone remember what this debate is named?
