I watched this the other day and thought it was fascinating.
Big Conversations held back an exclusive clip of JBP and Blackmore debating whether atheists can believe in free will. If you're interested, let them know at http://www.thebigconversation.show https://twitter.com/jordanbpeterson/status/1005925527285313538 …

Exactly! Now prove it by freely willing a change in your beliefs and opinions. What? You cant? Well this is awkward.

Sounds interesting. Presumably an atheist can believe in whatever he/she likes (unlike someone indoctrinated into a religion).
-
Fascinating you say indoctrination. It's funny how atheists can't believe whatever they want but when it comes to any others it's forbidden

'Atheists' can believe in anything since their limited capabilities allow them to live without facing the consequences of their beliefs.

How do you not see the irony in debating if "atheists can believe in free will"?
-
Reminds me of the legendary Hitchens response when he says something like: "of course I believe in free will; I have no choice."

Or maybe, free will is just completely incoherent as a concept and only held by Romantic vitalists and organicists
