The Freemasons believe in a god who is known as the Great Architect. They do not believe that Jesus is God and their god is different from any other religion. This is one of the most secretive religions of all times.

Does Hume believe in free will?

David Hume, a philosopher from the 18th century, did not believe in free will in the traditional sense. He argued that our actions are determined by our desires and beliefs, rather than by any kind of free choice.


Do you believe in fate or free will?

Some people believe that everything is already destined to occur and that free will is an illusion (determinism and predeterminism); other people believe free will exists and that people have control over their own fates. Among these two dichotomous position lies a spectrum, varying from hard determinism to philosophical libertarianism. One of the main proponents in the argument that both determinism and free will are valid postulates is the concept of Philosophical Dualism. The answer to whether I (or you) believe in one or another depends on who is asked the question. There is no absolute or finite answer to such a subjective and ambiguous question.


Why did Dred Scott believe that he should be free?

Dred Scott believed he should be free because he had lived in free states and territories where slavery was illegal, which he argued should have conferred freedom upon him. He sued for his freedom based on the legal principle of once free, always free, but ultimately lost the case in a landmark Supreme Court decision.


How does God's omniscience impact human free will?

God's omniscience, or all-knowing nature, means that God knows everything, including the choices humans will make. This can lead to the question of whether humans truly have free will if God already knows what choices they will make. Some believe that God's knowledge does not interfere with human free will, as humans still have the ability to make choices, even if God knows what those choices will be. Others believe that God's omniscience may limit human free will, as our choices may be predetermined by God's knowledge.


If God is omniscient, does that mean that humans do not have free will?

The concept of God being omniscient does not necessarily mean that humans do not have free will. The belief in free will is a complex philosophical and theological issue that is debated among scholars and religious thinkers. Some argue that God's omniscience and human free will can coexist, while others believe they are incompatible. Ultimately, the relationship between God's omniscience and human free will is a topic that has been discussed for centuries without a definitive answer.
