    Barbara Gonzalez Is there a way to reconcile predestination with free will? There has always been much talk about both predestination and free will and how they both fit together or they don’t. I believe there is a way to reconcile both. There is a reason both are spoken of and taught. Ephesians 1:11 “...in whom also we have been chosen to an inheritance‚ being predestinated according to the purpose of Him who works all things according to the counsel of his own will...” The way I see

    Position Paper I am writing on Free will and determinism. I am supporting that free will exist and that we control and are responsible for what we do. I will argue that free will better fits our life‚ than determinism. Determinism is basically some other power controls everything in life‚ and what we do. Even though people will argue that God controls everything we do‚ which I agree with‚ but the fact that everything is already pre-determined in our life‚ I don’t support. I don’t support determinism

    is truly accountable for mankind’s destiny‚ yet the answers are unclear. On many occasions‚ man has no control over his fate and destiny‚ but in other instances‚ a man’s destiny exists as a result of his actions and decisions. There is an element of free will. Consequently‚ The Iliad exhibits that human beings sometimes control their fate. In The Iliad the god’s destiny is steered much like mortal’s‚ except for one specific distinction. The supreme beings cannot die and therefore have no destiny.

    In philosophy‚ free will is “the power of self-determination” (Vaughn 219). If we have free will that would mean that we are free to make decisions about our lives and our future. We can decide all kinds of things from if we are going to get out of bed in the morning to if we are going to worship God. These decisions are not just what we are going to do‚ but also what we are going to think and what we are going to believe or disbelieve. In addition‚ in philosophy‚ there is the doctrine of determinism

    I strongly believe that W.T. Stace is correct while arguing for the view of soft determinism‚ also known as compatibilism. Stace believes in compatibilism‚ which states that determinism is true‚ but free will still does exist. He puts both views together by studying the definition of free will. Stace asks‚ “How can anyone be punished or rewarded for his or her actions if they have no control over their actions?” That statement seemed extremely convincing to me because both d’Holbach and Chisholm

    In the shooting case of Trayvor Martin‚ George Zimmerman should not go to prison. A significant amount of speculation exists around the shootings circumstances. There lacks an indisputable‚ completely factual account of the shooting and its preceding events. Without the support of concrete evidence murder can not be proven beyond a reasonable doubt. I intend to show the conclusion‚ that George Zimmerman should not go to jail‚ is true because the argument is sound. I think my argument is valid because
