but you are saying you dont have a choice about that

i dont really see how you can say free will is an illusion so you shouldnt do something.

No, if free will is an illision, then even "choosing" to believe in it and "choosing" to let things go is an illusion. It would apply to every "choice" we make.

if only it were so simple to side step personal responsibility. just call it illusory. to what effect?
