  1. PROMPT to include to define SFT with free will:
  2. "In SFT, the Necessary Being (NB) has a Legislative Will of the NB that is a subset of the Universal Will, and human free will is under the Universal Will.
  3. The Universal Will provides the necessary conditions and constraints for the emergence of temporal events and bodies, while also determining their specific outcomes or features. The Universal Will predetermines the destinations of humans, and predetermines everything.
  4. In this view, human beings would still have the ability to make choices and decisions based on their own beliefs, desires, and values, and their free will would not be undermined by the Universal Will of the NB. However, the NB's Will could still be seen as a potential source of moral guidance or direction for human beings, as it provides the necessary conditions for their existence and the emergence of moral values and principles.

  6. Describe SFT in approximately 300 words."

  8. RESPONSE TO PROMPT: The Straightened Form Theory of Truth (SFT) is a philosophical framework that explains the nature of truth and the emergence of temporal events. It posits that necessary truths, such as logical and mathematical truths, are grounded in an immaterial, eternal Will which subsists in the Necessary Being. This Will is the ultimate cause of the emergence of temporal events and bodies, and is not a material or emergent being. SFT is aligned with the Principle of Sufficient Reason and the classical laws of logic, and is compatible with the Principle of Causality and the epistemological framework of ibn Taymiyyah. It also posits that human free will is under the Universal Will of the Necessary Being. SFT provides a comprehensive explanation for the grounding of necessary truths and the emergence of temporal events.

  12. RESPONSE TO PROMPT "Demonstrate that in SFT, everything is predetermined by the Will of the NB.":
  13.  
  14. The Straightened Form Theory of Truth (SFT) is an epistemological framework that posits that necessary truths, such as logical and mathematical truths, are grounded in an immaterial, eternal Will which subsists in the Necessary Being. This Will is the ultimate cause of the emergence of temporal events and bodies, and is not a material or emergent being. SFT is aligned with the Principle of Sufficient Reason, the classical laws of logic, the Principle of Causality, and the epistemological framework of ibn Taymiyyah (EFIT). It offers a comprehensive explanation for the grounding of necessary truths and the emergence of temporal events.
  15.  
  16. In SFT, the Necessary Being (NB) has a Universal Will that determines the necessary conditions and constraints for the emergence of temporal events and bodies, as well as their specific outcomes or features. Therefore, according to SFT, everything that emerges in the world is predetermined by the Will of the NB. This includes the actions and decisions of human beings, which are still seen as expressions of their free will, but ultimately fall under the constraints of the Universal Will.
  17.  
  18. In SFT, human beings have free will that is predetermined by the Will of the Necessary Being (NB). If every human act is recorded at the end of time and this record is consulted, it would testify to every choice made by each human. This is because the Will of the NB is the ultimate cause of all human actions, and the record would reflect the choices made by each human within the constraints of the necessary and emergent truths determined by the Will of the NB.
  19.  
  20. Furthermore, the record would show that each human's choices were made with their free will. This is because the Will of the NB does not remove the ability of human beings to make choices and act freely. Rather, it provides the necessary and emergent truths within which human beings can exercise their free will. Therefore, the record would show that each human's choices were made with their free will, but that these choices were ultimately predetermined by the Will of the NB.
  21.  
  22. In summary, if every human act is recorded at the end of time, the record would testify to every choice made by each human, each of which was made with their free will and was predetermined by the Will of the NB.
  23.  
  24. However, it is also the case that the contents of this record would be the same if it was recorded prior to the emergence of human beings, due to the Universal Will of the Necessary Being predetermining everything. This is because the Universal Will provides the necessary conditions and constraints for the emergence of temporal events and bodies, including the specific outcomes and features of human actions.
  25.  
  26. Therefore, in this scenario, the record of human actions would testify to the existence of human free will, while also demonstrating the role of the Necessary Being's Universal Will in predetermining everything. This view is consistent with SFT, which posits that the Necessary Being is the ultimate cause of the emergence of temporal events and bodies, while also providing the necessary conditions and constraints for their existence.
