1) Explain the appeal/reason why one would want to insist upon a mechanistically deterministic universe. (Consider our discussion of the moon landing, here.) 2) Explain how a deterministic universe might eliminate free-will. (Make sure to define terms, here.) 3) Why would the elimination of free-will be problematic for ethics? (Consider my comments about my brother hitting me, here.) 4) If free-will and determinism are incompatible (this is a big if), to which of the two positions would you subscribe? 5) Explain why.
