    People continue to ask how my view of free will differs from @danieldennett. I wrote about this last year: http://bit.ly/I0hbXH  #FreeWill

        @SamHarrisOrg @danieldennett Idea that limitations amplify illusion of free will & also prove free will does not exist is paradoxical.

        @SamHarrisOrg @danieldennett Where having too many choices hinders action, couldn't we simply choose to limit those choices?

        @SamHarrisOrg @danieldennett To start with, many choices become limited by being alive, so misuse of "free will" results in death.

        @SamHarrisOrg @danieldennett I've always thought "it was his choice" is a non-explanation for why the choice was made. #FreeWill
