Dr. Tim Stratton, an academic specializing in free will and the existence of God, presents a compelling argument linking free will to the belief in a divine presence. He critiques how naturalism undermines rational thought, suggesting that determinism contradicts true beliefs. Through intriguing thought experiments, he explores the implications of belief manipulation and the necessity of an immaterial soul. Additionally, he delves into the Kalam Cosmological Argument, advocating for a cause beyond time and space that aligns with libertarian freedom.
