Science / Re: Determinism

If i can but in for a minute.
In a example: If a soldier come back from active service having accidentally shot an innocent civillian and wonders if he could repeate the moment would he still act in the same way.
If I understand then if it is free will then it stands to reason that if it was his choice to start with the he would react in the same way because that is who he is and that is just how he would react meaning that it is irrelevant wether or not it is actually free will he would act in the same way regardless.

Free Will: Could have but didn't.
Determinism: Couldn't have thus didn't.

So if I understand correctly then it dosen't really matter which is which it just depends on wether the person in question prefers to believe they are in control of their actions or that we are all part of some cosmic master plan.

It is relevant in the field of Ethics for many ascribe to the belief that "Ought implies Can". If the person is deterministic then they cannot not do what they ought. The double negative is important. This would remove 2 (morally prohibited and morally praiseworthy) of the 4 categories of actions leaving only morally neutral and morally obligatory actions.

That is incredibly confusing

Music / Re: creepy songs!

« on: February 20, 2012, 12:28:07 pm »

this song is really good but it is quite creepy because
-It's about someone taking over the world
-This person has had everthing he loves destroyed and now he wants to do the same thing everyone else
- The guy is clearly obsessed with revenge.

Design Theory / Re: New Passive Skill: Aquatic/Amphibian

Personally i think there should be more fish like creatures for example
-Sharks
- Jellyfish

This way if there was a new passive skill like this then more creatures would benifit
