THE ILLUSION OF FREE WILL
A conversation with Professor Gregg Caruso
Professor Gregg Caruso joins the podcast, we argue that not only is free will an illusion, but a dangerous one that is leading to a lot of needless suffering. We cover voluntariness vs origination, retribution, the emotional need for revenge, containment, and quarantine.
Gregg D. Caruso is Associate Professor of Philosophy at SUNY Corning, USA, and Co-Director of the Justice Without Retribution Network. He is the author of Free Will and Consciousness and the editor of Neuroexistentialism: Meaning, Morals, and Purpose in the Age of Neuroscience (co-edited with Owen Flanagan), Science and Religion: 5 Questions, and Exploring the Illusion of Free Will and Moral Responsibility.
