Arthur M. Young |

Free will and purpose are not inconsistent with a universe subject to law. In fact, says Arthur Young, free will would be ineffective without a determinate world to act upon. Young, philosopher, inventor of the Bell helicopter and author of The Reflexive Universe, also discusses the difference between determinism--the belief that everything acts according to law--and pre-destination or fate. | |

| "A lantern may have a functioning light within it, but it may be coated with dust and soot to the point where that light does not shine through at all. So both things are true, but both need to be said in the same breath. Namely, I believe that it is true that in the final analysis we are divine and are God, but we should immediately acknowledge how caked and coated we are with dross that conceals that divinity, and it's, one's tempted to say, an endless quest to clean the surface, to let the light shine through." --Huston Smith |
