    I personally don’t believe that college should be free. Making it free would only serve to limit the value of the education while filling colleges with students that have no business/need there.

As a result‚ you hear from a lot of people that believe

Even though people will argue that God controls everything we do‚ which I agree with‚ but the fact that everything is already pre-determined in our life‚ I don’t support. I don’t support determinism

    definitions of free will and determinism and the connection between the two thoughts. I will then define Stace’s definition of free will and then compare van Inwagen’s traditional definition of free will to the colloquial definition Stace uses to prove Stace’s definition too vague to define all cases of free will. I will ultimately argue that Stace’s compatibilist definition‚ while at first seems practical‚ is not a strong enough definition and that van Inwagen’s definition of free will poses fewer
