Forced to be Guilty
Too often, choice is confused with capability and/or compulsion; because of this, the concept of free will is often misused in theology.

Sam Harris on "Free Will"
SAM HARRIS IS THE AUTHOR of the New Work Times bestsellers, The Moral Landscape, The End of Faith and Letter to a Christian Nation.
Sam Harris new book is short (96) pages, to the point, and will change the way we all view free will, as Oliver Sacks wrote: "Brilliant and witty - and never less than incisive - Free Will shows that Sam Harris can say more in 13,000 words than most people do in 100,000." UCSD neuroscientist V.S, Ramachandran notes: "In this elegant and provocative book, Sam Harris demonstrates - with great intellectual ferocity and panache - that free will is an inherently flawed and incoherent concept, even in subjective terms. If Sam Harris is right, the book will radically change the way we view ourselves as human beings"

When Pwnage Backfires
Pompous asshole self-pwnage FTW. Also, I demonstrate how to be a proper smart-ass.
PS. Imagine MrsDM's reaction when I asked her to play footsie with me under the covers with my big toe dressed like a priest while I film it. AND SHE STILL DOESN'T WANT A DIVORCE! Must be desperate or something.

The Science and Philosophy of Free Will
Are advances in the scientific understanding of the human mind shaping our conception of free will? If so, how? Are the cognitive sciences revealing that free will does not exist, or are they merely shedding light on the inner workings of agency? And do the answers to these questions have implications for moral responsibility?
On Nov. 6, 2011, the Center for Inquiry New York City explored these and related questions by presenting a panel discussion featuring:
* Hakwan Lau, Columbia University.
* Alfred Mele, Florida State University.
* Jesse Prinz, City University of New York.
* Adina Roskies, Dartmouth College.
* Massimo Pigliucci, City University of New York.
This event was held at the Auditorium on Broadway. It was the second in our "Science and Philosophy" series. The first event focused on consciousness.

Steven Pinker on Free Will
There's no such thing as free will in the sense of a ghost in the machine; our behavior is the product of physical processes in the brain rather than some mysterious soul, says Pinker.
