Question 83 — Free Will

We now inquire concerning free-will. Under this head there are four points of inquiry:

(1) Whether man has free-will?

• (2) What is free-will—a power, an act, or a habit?
• (3) If it is a power, is it appetitive or cognitive?
• (4) If it is appetitive, is it the same power as the will, or distinct?
