    Is it possible that our everyday decisions control the outcome of our lives? The ideas of fate and free will have been around for centuries‚ and are still argued about today. The question is often asked: is the outcome of our lives predetermined‚ or do we control the things that happen to us? Aristotle was one of the first of his time to argue that people’s decisions were not determined by fate‚ but rather people decided whether or not to act on their choices. William Shakespeare also examines these

    2012 John Taylor vs. Howling Wolf Treaty Signing at Medicine Creek Lodge When looking at the two images of John Taylor and Howling Wolf’s views on the way the treaty signing of 1867 happened we can begin to see the way both represented their own view. In my opinion‚ John Taylor represented the treaty signing better in the eyes of all of us. He may of used only black and white for his painting‚ but the distinguishing lines that help form both the figures and nature are much clearer. In John Taylor’s

    I believe most people have some sort of consensus to what free will is; the ability to make choices. Free will cannot be simplified down to a single absolute definition because in this age‚ we don’t entirely know why or how we make these decisions. To my beliefs‚ free will is the sense where individuals can consciously think for themselves on what they want to do‚ whether that is getting the fish instead of chicken for dinner or deciding to run for president. Even though we have the option to always

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
