Elaborate?

And free will means that the events that will occur in our lives are non-predetermined. With free will, even if I had perfect knowledge of the world, I would not be able to predict your future actions. Without free will, I could tell you every single thing that will occur in the rest of your life.

- The Bomber

Well how can you have perfect knowledge about the world if the government lies about everything?

I mean, what I WILL as a verb would not happen because it will not due to obstacles in life.

Hmm...

You'd have to have something, an incident to set off something predetermined. Like, one seemingly simple decison like whether to go out on a saturday or stay in could leads to many different roads and options but i do believe we have free will in our lives but it's determined by past events..the past predetermines the future which we have free will over so i believe in compatibilism.
