Do you believe in free will and why?

Tbh no there is nothing such as free will as imo society dictates how much "free will" with what we choose and their will be someone and something that will be your limitations.
Of course there are limitations, I mean do you think our actions are predetermined or are chosen on the moment of choice?

It's a very good question, and I don't think anyone really knows the answer. Sometimes I think of the universe as being 100% predetermined, and at others I picture it like a series of paths that continually branches off to make more and more paths. I suppose the variation would be due to minor, unpredictable actions of quarks, strings, etc... that emerge because of quantum mechanics. I'm not sure what to believe.

I agree with the part of this comment that refers to things being lead in different paths with each decision made, I think if I started to believe my life was predetermined or that destiny or fate would choose my path for me, I would lose my mind.

So yeah I think we all have the power to decide where our life takes us, nothing is set in stone :)

I believe that our path in life is somewhat guided but mainly left up to free will. Like some events are going to happen no matter what but what you choose to do in the situation or what you take away from it is left to free will.
