Episode 2: Fatalism, Foreknowledge, and Determinism with John Martin Fischer
The Free Will Show
The Logic of Fatalism
The argument from fatalism is that you are not free to do anything different. It was first put forward in aristotle's work, de interpretation of a famous sea battle argument. If it's now true that there will be a sea battle to morrow, there's nothing i can do about it. And if it's now false, that ther i mean now false, then there's nothing I can do about that. So given that i can't change the past, there's no choice about listening at all.
