Usually, they are created from “beliefs, desires, mental features we possess, or our upbringing” (Sober, “Freedom, Determinism, and Causality”, 247). From my understanding, since our mind is only a physical and elementary object, so are our thoughts and ideas because that is where they derived from. I think that if we are just physical parts of the universe then we are all subject to the laws of nature and the universe. When all of our actions are random and spontaneous, yet there is still a deterministic factor that foretells actions or thoughts, it is not free will. Hume seems to claims that everyone is defining free will incorrectly. To Hume, free will is doing what you want to do. Sober goes on to say, " I suggest that if determinism robs you of freedom, chance seems to rob you of freedom as well," which signifies that there probably will not be a change with anything simply from the fact that chance is put into the picture (Sober, "Freedom, Derterminism, and Casuality", 251). He goes on and asks the reader, " Would introducing chance into this story make more room for freedom? I think not. I think you'd still be unfree if your actions were caused by your beliefs, desires, and chance," which describes his opinion on whether there will be any change or not between the two worlds (Sober, "Freedom, Determinism, and Casuality", 251). Sober has a valid argument by explaining that chance
