Re: Freewill
Hi Straggler,
Nice post. I too have grown tired of Syamsu's ridiculous attempts to incorporate his non-sensical theories into true scientific fields.
Judging by his response it seems that your post fell on deaf ears. I guess Syamsus' ears have the freewill to ignore sound advice. I anticipate that he'll continue his incessant tirads about "Decision making toothbrushes, benevolent coffee cups, evil planetary orbits, irrational chocolate bars and dead brainless mice "choosing" the manner in which they decompose" and continue to show his ignorance here on EvC.
We can only hope that his computer shows the freewill to shut down and not allow him to respond on these threads...but, then again, that would only be proof that computers have freewill and we'd be right back where we started

That sounds intriguing. What recent developments have occurred that make this more possible/reliable? Are you talking technological, mathematical, conceptual....??
Hey Straggler I thought you might enjoy this read. Towards the bottom of the paper it gets into the topic of QM regarding brain funtions. Hope you enjoy it.
