The cold view to take of our future is that we are therefore headed for extinction in a universe of impersonal chemical, physical, and biological laws.

In the traditional view, a person is free. He is autonomous in the sense that his behavior is uncaused. He can therefore be held responsible for what he does and justly punished if he offends.
