Great Regulars: I seem to be constitutionally incapable of

subscribing to determinism. A determined determinist would, I guess, ascribe that to the chain of causation whose end-point I happen to be. But then I could write off his opinion as the result of the same in his case.

I have to say that I can never quite believe that any determinist lives his life as one. I am sure they feel that they think their thoughts and not that they merely have thoughts.

from Frank Wilson: When Falls the Coliseum: That's What He Said: Determinism and this gratuitous world
