Very hostile alien kidnaps you and ties you into a chair. You

The alien is probably trying to fuck with me and will kill or not kill me independent of my answers, for the majority of these questions are either ambiguous without further specification of terms, have no simple yes/no answer but rather a more subtle one, or assume by their phrasing something that isn't true and therefore have no meaningful answer anymore than "have you stopped beating your wife yet".

>have no simple yes/no answer

Only questions 3, 4, 5, 7, 8 and 10 have simple yes/no answer.
Questions 1, 2, 6, and 9 depend on what axioms you have agreed to.

Ah, I see the game now.

Only a couple of these questions have a "yes" or "no" answer; the rest have a correct answer other than one of those. Thus, the alien will reward you based on your answers to those questions, and disregards the rest; he cares about having ENOUGH of the questions right. 8 out of 10 (or so) answers will definitely be wrong because no correct answer is allowed, so maybe all the alien asks is that of the 2 questions with a correct "yes" or "no" answer you pick the right one, and disregards the other questions?

I answer yes to every question. Statistically I get at least half of them right.

> You are subject to a game of semantics with an alien

I answer yes to every question.

>1. Is there God?
Question ill defined
>2. Did something exist before the Big Bang?
unknown
>3. Is space infinite?
Infinitely divisible? Probably not, Infinite in expanse? unknown
>4. Is time infinite?
Infinitely divisible? Probably not. Will continue forever? Probably.
>5. Is everything possible?
No.
>6. Do you have free will?
If I lack free will, it is not of my own choice.
>7. Is there more than one universe?
Wouldn't multiple universes still be part of the same over-universe and therefore the set that contains everything includes all "universes" would still simply be the Universe.
>8. Is the universe you are in entirely deterministic?
If it were deterministic I would have no free will in my answers.
>9. Does life have any special meaning?
The purpose of life is life's continued existence.
>10. Can systems evolve endlessly?
Why wouldn't they?

Your scenario is laughable, I would know nothing the alien would care to know unless it was about an Earth specific detail and more likely human culture question.

>cooperating with hostile aliens

>>8611569
Look who got shot.

t.alien food

>>8611571
If the Universe was deterministic my answers would be the same and I would still get shot. But I would have no choice or blame for my answers and the alien would have had no choice or blame for kidnapping, questioning and shooting me.

No to everything except the last one: I don't understand what you're asking.

>>8611579
Then who's to blame? The initial conditions? Even in a deterministic world from your perspective you have free will.

NO

is this from a movie ?

>>8611507
1. NO
2. YES
3. NO
4. NO
5. NO
7. NO
8. YES
9. NO
10. YES

>>8611601
If the system is perfectly deterministic only the initial conditions and simulation rules matter.

The same initial conditions and rules will always have the same result.

laugh at this dead man!

can I fuck the alien?

>>8611615
Since you are a part of that simulation you can't tell that all of your actions are predestined and it seems to you that you do things intentionally.

>>8611838
