Unlike my ancient predecessor, this Tullius hasn't had his hands chopped off. With hands attached I offer my thoughts on philosophy, religion, politics, and whatever else I find worth mentioning. I'm conservative religiously and politically (with libertarian leanings). I value reason and freedom but also traditions and "Oldthink." I relish being on the wrong side of history when history is wrong--part of a philosopher's job is to be unpopular. (Views given here may not represent my employers')

What are the Philosophical Implications of the Urge to Urinate?
Not many, as far as I can see. People are less likely to believe in free will when they have urges they have little control over. I can buy that. But having false beliefs and believing things without good arguments is perfectly consistent with having free will.
