Many of the traditional problems of philosophy, of religion, or of ethics, are of this character. Consider, for example, the problem of the freedom of the will. You maintain that you are free to take either the right- or the left-hand fork in the road. I defy you to set up a single objective criterion by which you can prove after you have made the turn that you might have made the other. The problem has no meaning in the sphere of objective activity; it only relates to my personal subjective feelings while making the decision.","author":"Percy Williams Bridgman","tags":["decisions","determinism","ethics","experiment","falsifiability","falsifiable","feelings","free-will","meaning","nobel-laureate","objective","philosophy","proof","questions","religion","science","scientific","subjective"],"id":7513,"author_id":"Percy+Williams+Bridgman"},{"text":"History is so subjective.
