[extropy-chat] Davies' freedom

[scerir]

Paul Davies freely speculates about free will.
Two types of 'freedom' are described. One it is
supernatural and one natural.

"This isn't right. This isn't even wrong." 
- W. Pauli

(In a very long paper Asher Peres studied,
also giving mathematical details, the 
possible connection between free will
and QM, and especially between free will
and quantum entanglements. It turned out
that QM and quantum entanglements cannot
forbid free will. Unless there is, as 
Peres and Zurek say in another paper,
a super-determinism, as John Bell called
it, i.e. a deterministic universal simulation.
Since there are political, social, ideological,
psychological entanglements that are non-quantal, 
and since there are also macro physical systems
violating Bell's inequalities, well I'm not 
sure about my own freedom!)
