It is unlikely that we lack free will in some form.

This is rather frustrating. You failed to do what you were required to do in this round which is refute my arguments or accept them. Did you even read my arguments? I went through the trouble of going back through my first year medical school material for some really cool examples supporting my stance and as far as I can tell you just ignored all of it. I decided that I should consume large amounts of alcohol to level the playing field. I will now give a line by line rebuttal to what you wrote, but note that the rules state that your options were to attack my arguments or to concede, not to make ridiculous, unverified, god claims. I would be more kind, but I rejected you as an opponent and you kept at it, so I will not hold back. "We did not choose to exist. While this argument does not disprove free will, it does mean that the beginning of reality was something we did not create." That is not an argument, it is a statement. This is already looking bad since you don't know what an argument is. "Though this may sound irrelevant at first, a closer look will prove that is anything but." A closer look shows that this is not even a sentence. "Every organism that existed before animals evolved does not have a consciousness, and everything that it did was predetermined by its genetics." Again, not a sentence. Please try writing sentences before debating. "Almost nobody thinks that any creature that existed before animals has free will. " False. "Some will argue that some animals have free will, and others do not, but this is impossible because all animals (except for sponges) are conscious." Okay.... "Jellyfish even have a consciousness, but they obviously don't have free will, so the argument that free will=consciousness is invalid." WTF. First, I did not say that consciousness=free will. I said that consciousness' existence makes no sense except in the light of free will. Second, there are unfounded statements that you pulled out of where the sun doesn't shine. " Humans emerged by pure chance, and nobody determined the evolution of humans unless there was a higher power involved (there must be no higher power if my position is correct, which I will get to later). " BULL. If you understood evolution, you would see that it is not pure chance, there is a method to the madness. Additionally, the rules state that you must accept evolution, so you already have lost for violating the rules and wasting my time. "If we did not choose our existence, than what do we supposedly determine?" Choosing to exist has nothing with choosing actions. " All of our decisions are based off of genetics, or our environment." Prove this, the rules state that this kind of argument is BANNED unless you can prove it. " Unless Pro can prove that this is not the case, all of his other arguments are invalid. " Your arguments had nothing to do with my arguments, it is like playing chess with a pidgeon. http://1.bp.blogspot.com... "Now, if there is no higher power that exists, this IS the case." What is the case? What the bloody hell are you talking about? Why did you insist that you were not a troll then waste my time with this nonsense?
