This is just a free will version of "god-of-the-gaps", where you can shovel the basis of any unknown into the gaps of scientific understanding. We know far more about physics and the mind than we did 100 years ago, and the boundaries for free will to exist in have done nothing but shrink. Not even leaving a mark or hint behind.

Free will is much closer to leprechauns (we still haven't mapped every forest!) on the truth spectrum than it is to cancer cures or fusion energy.

I would believe you, but you had no choice but to output that information, so it’s noise :)

Choice is different than free will. We have will, but it is not free. We will make choices.

[mensetmanusman]

You can’t make choices without will, choices are made.

Your brain already did the choice for you before you even realized.

So the brain has a will?
