Show Notes

Bill Reel was interviewed on the podcast “Rameumptom Ruminations” and below is a synopsis of the episode

Is there space for agency to exist in our causal and determined world? After listening to a recent Mormonism live episode where Bill and RFM discussed Agency with their guest Carah, Scott invited Bill onto the show to discuss the subject in further detail. This episode is a primer on the debate over the existence of a free will. In it, they cover determinism, compatibilism, and libertarianism and the arguments for and against each.
