Definitions:

Free Will

Among philosophers, a somewhat antiquated expression (as in “he did it of his own free will”) meaning that a person is capable of making decisions that are not determined by antecedent conditions. Of course, there may be antecedent considerations, such as what a person wants or what a person believes, but free will means that such considerations never determine a person’s decision. At most they “enter into the decision.”

Least of the Evils

A principle involved in decision making that opts for the less harmful or least undesirable option among several bad choices.

Process Philosophy

A philosophical approach that emphasizes becoming, change, and the dynamic nature of reality over static being or existence.
