Digging into the very old debate of free will and determinism: Are those struggling with drug addiction and alcoholism really using their free will, or is their actions the natural and inevitable result of things they can't control, such as genetics, biology, trauma, and cultural conditioning? Our latest episode dives into the ongoing debate between Free Will and Determinism, especially when it comes to addiction.
We keep it down-to-earth, not getting too deep into the philosophical weeds, but hitting the main points that matter. In this episode, we toss around some ideas, chat about a notorious mass murderer, and get into the nitty-gritty of the ethics surrounding free will.
Come hang out with us as we chat about free will – it's an exploration into whether people in addiction, or anyone else, has a choice or if external factors are calling the shots.
