Overview Free will in theology



the theological doctrine of divine foreknowledge alleged in conflict free will, particularly in calvinistic circles: if god knows happen (right down every choice person makes), seem freedom of these choices called question.


this problem related aristotelian problem of sea battle: tomorrow either there or not sea battle. according law of excluded middle, there seems 2 options. if there sea battle, seems true yesterday there one. necessary sea battle occur. if there not one, then, similar reasoning, necessary not occur. means future, whatever is, fixed past truths: true propositions future (a deterministic conclusion reached: things not have been other way).


however, philosophers follow william of ockham in holding necessity , possibility defined respect given point in time , given matrix of empirical circumstances, , merely possible perspective of 1 observer may necessary perspective of omniscient. philosophers follow philo in holding free feature of human s soul, , non-human animals lack free will.
