In this paper I will argue

However‚ "free will" is NOT the only defining feature of something that is "classical"‚ and in fact‚ there is a "neoclassical school" that is based on the idea of character (as a compromise between free will and determinism) and a rational choice school of thought which has similar but not the essential features of "classical‚" Rational choice is the idea that there are many more complex decision making variables in the reasoning process of offenders than the simple free will -

    Roman Empire‚ “On the Free Choice of the Will” is a philosophical discussion over God and evil with focus onto how evil is defined as well as how humanity’s freedom to make choices gives birth to malice.
