Karl Pilkington, the Onion, and the Problem of Free Will
Loading...
Uploaded by MrPhiloscience on Feb 10, 2011
A clip the Ricky Gervais Show that illustrates the problem of free will. He's easy to make fun of, but Pilkington actually makes a pretty profound observation here.

He has a point. I mean, if we didn't have a brain, we wouldn't be able to do anything, so the brain is feeding us information so that we can.

Kony 2012! look it up. Also, Karl ... are you mental?

Haha i know what Karl means, its just the way he words it is so funny. Some times I feel bad for him because he gets ripped for being so dumb... poor guy... but very entertaining. lol

@DimentalLabs What is so silly about it? Read gamegloss's response, and then check up on determinism.

@dezzre I couldn't open the page, though I imagine that you are referring to property dualism, no? If so, it's more of a philosophical hypothesis than an actually fact. It concerns the nature of consciousness as opposed to the physical properties of the brain.

He is just referencing consciousness and subconscious but he can't describe it.
