Letter: Editor's pick: Free will or, rather, free choice?

Published 8 June 2016

From Denise Taylor

The main problem with free will is terminology. The freedom to “will” things suggests a power over the universe to set the options – and that is not the same as choosing between them, which is the limited power we have. I suggest that freedom of will is a misleading term and what we actually have is the freedom to choose.
