You're listening to, atheistically speaking. Oh, Hey, welcome to episode 50 of atheistically speaking. I'm your host Thomas Smith, and I'm really

excited to be at such a milestone, you know, dependent on our, you know, our base 10 number system sort of but you know still that means

25 weeks is that what that means wow 25 weeks that's like almost half a year

so I'd say 52 is maybe more of a milestone than 50 in some ways.

That's hard to believe. I can't believe it's been that long, but this is all coming crashing down on me right now so episode 50 so on

Monday we talked about free will and we solved the problem.

And I was offered many interviews from television stations around the world because I solved the problem of free will quite easily.

four five logic of kind of the debate that I've been able to find between Sam

Harris and Dan Dennett and in general just free will in. I'm really interested in what

Dennett says outside of the debate, so I'm going to talk about that, but I'm not

exactly sure how to, you know, structure it. So I'm just going to go go we'll see how it goes I think either

way it'll be fine you guys are all smart you'll you'll keep it organized in your

brains so where we left off we had Harris talking about things occurring your subconscious or

your unconscious mind. I don't know what the real difference is there. It's probably some psychological term, but one of the other

thing, background processes are helping you make decisions. They are, you don't have control over them.

You don't know what they're saying sorry you don't

know what they're deciding until it's sort of decided you you can't really and

it's completely incoherent to even think of needing to think of your thoughts before you
