As far as subject matter goes, and curriculum, what are the differences between pure and applied mathematics?

>all scientific evidence points to free will being impossible
Free will is a matter of theology, philosophy and semantics.
Why would science be able to "prove" anything about it.
What you *mean* is that sperglords who major in physics in particular just don't like the idea.
That's why the field has such a problem with QM: "I refuse to BELIEVE that God plays dice with the universe!"
We can't even really define consciousness, hell we can't even come up with a good name for it, but you're certain the choices we make somehow aren't made by us.

Speaking of God...
In theology, free will has little to do with predestination, and is mostly about whether a being is constrained by the will of God.
How's the physics community feel about that?
