Default Re: Is Fatalism Worse or Equal to Religion?

[ QUOTE ]
B) There is free will. Accordingly, there must exist an agent/force/whatever that functions outside of the known laws of science. There is no empirical evidence for said agent. Modern psychology repeatedly shows that behavior is lawful, suggesting that there is no need for such an agent (the vast majority of psychiatrists are determinists)

Occam's razor shreds the latter to pieces.

Hit your thumb with a hammer if you want to demonstrate the existence of something that functions outside of the known laws of science.
