What happened to Free Will?. Who said anything about Free Will? You know, we actually tried Free Will before. After taking you from hunting and gathering to the height of the Roman Empire we stepped back to see how you’d do on your own.You gave us the Dark Ages – for five centuries – until finally we decided we should come back in.#

Essay in my \(R^3 class\). “At the end of the drama THE TRUTH — which has been overlooked, disregarded, scorned, and denied — prevails. And that is how we know the Drama is done.” Some scientists may be sloppy because they are — like all humans — interested in ordering & Curating the world rather than in rigorously demonstrating a truth#
