I'll be brief, but think of it as a Bayesian model in which randomness and uncertainty are embedded with causal relations. As such, this outlook doesn't impart any limits on my decision-making in everyday life, and I'd be ready to abandon it at second's notice were I to find a better explanation.Im curious as to your personal view on free will. "Probabilistic ontology" - could you elaborate?
What matters is that your answer wasn't logically deduced. Expanding on that point, though, the difference between an intuited and an emoted answer lies in the separation of a private vision from a received opinion.The term "feels" in "feels natural" is not the same as term "feeling" as in "the Feeling function", not to say that the correlation with Feeling does or does not exist.
Once again, the value and usefulness of Jungian typology is captured in its predictive scope. I think it merits the various theories that we can look to strong Fe paired with Si, or repressed Ti, and expect a pattern of behavior on a collective basis. The aspects that can't be empirically validated are just not that interesting.
Agreed, but if and only if taken at face value. What we shouldn't overlook, however, is that the expressions "[X] is natural" or "nature is [Y]" are both received opinions.Additionally, the idea of something seeming "natural" is anti-thetical to the idea of it being a "received opinion".
Please exemplify, because I'm not aware of any Buddhist, Hindu, or Muslim who has ever embraced the Western notion of free will. Universally speaking, we act on desires and react to expectations, but we haven't chosen either of them. Furthermore, acceptable desires and societal expectations differ in degrees of divergence from place to place.If the dichotomy being discussed wasn't present in non-Western societies, that may be because free will is something we believe in innately without needing to give it any thought.
Being free is simply the state of not being a slave. The very second you tie metaphysical baggage to it, you enter a world of either received opinions (Fe) or private visions (Ni).After all, why question that we have freedom when it is so integral to being in the world?
