Topic: Do we have free will?

I see what you mean,if we ourselves make choices or is there a set plan for everything and you are just playing the part of a pre-determined destiny?I read a book about this,very hard to reply to that question.

We wouldn't know the difference. Everything would just shut down. We would stop functioning, thinking, and living, but we would not know the difference.

And then what if the DS was turned back on?

We would pick up right where we started; not noticing a thing.

But what if they'd turned off without saving? Then the world would start over. And then what if we rebelled against the stylus and button controls? Or if the game was changed to Animal Crossing? Every day we'd just be making the game player madder and madder.

Then the player would just stop. But we wouldn't know, we're just computer game characters.
