| Free unwillingness?
In a deterministic way I would say free will is more like chemical brainreactions.
I think free will is more a product of the unconsciousness.
Just doubting whether free unwillingness is the product of the unconsciousness as well.(But personally I believe free unwillingness is the product of the unconsciousness also).
Question...
Imagen that a bee (which has the ability to remember a human face for example) gets a blow from a human. It wants to stab the human; so maybe it uses its ability of remembering the humans face. The readiness potential to stab (which is in the brain of the bee) might be there I believe maybe about 0.5 seconds before the stabbing itselfs happens (I mean, if it's like this with humans). (If stabbing is an arbitrary motion and not an autonomous one; cause I don't know much about bees.) But the actual decision of stabbing would happen in the brain of the bee almost simultaneous. When is the moment that the bee recognizes the humans face?
(Just a laymans curiosity...
What's the moment of the readiness potential for an arbitrary motion of a fly during winter, when you compare it with the time of the same potential during summer??  |
