Why do people get defensive and emotional when I tell them that there is no free will ?

I think that free will is an illusion and that even is already determined I talked with my dad's girlfriends ex about this and he said that is an evil belief to have and that it's wrong.
 
It’s a question the geniuses are still debating. We could be living in a simulation.
 
There is partial free will. I know that we wont go against our comfort zone so we would most likely choose the same option every time. Its just our options are limited by genes and circumstances.
 
Pragmatism is why people believe this belief is evil. I think Jordan Peterson is pragmatic the same way about religion and gay stuff like that. It's helpful to believe in an illusion basically.
 
Define free will first thats the million dollar question right there @RandomGuy
 
Most people who talk about free will don't understand what they mean by free will, because they don't know how to articulate/formulate what they mean by it. They just listen to what others say about it and parrot the stuff they feel sounds right to them.
 
You have free will depending of what limits society gives you
 
Because they want to feel in control of their lives. Everyone wants to be a MC but most people are just NPCs

There's too much ambiguity and discourse on what "free will" even means to actually have a rational discussion about it with most people.
 
You are threatening their existential comfort.
 
They knew you were going to say that
 
Demons fight for control over you, and so do angels, and of course yourself
 
Its scary for some to think that some things have already been ordained

Because believing that free will and civics exist is the latest cry of normies and libercucks
 
Obviously, some events are already determined, but they are also the results of your own past will...they are just actions that you have long forgotten when your counsciousness changed to another vessel. If you believe our reality has no flaws, which seems to be the case up to this point, it is a very solid theory.
 
I had a lengthy conversation with some friends about predestination and how free will is incompatible with Christian theology (at least imo) and my one friend who is a big self-improoover strongly disagreed and just repeatedly said some shit about God's plan. I think a lot of people are attached to the idea of free will because it makes them feel like their accomplishments are the results of their hard work, rather than it being set out for them. Also, I think its kind of a mindfuck because it pretty much means life was scripted since the beginning of time, which can just screw with a lot of peoples heads.

People want to believe they matter in some way
