UnseenWorld

This is a classic "false dichotomy."

First off, you can be "in complete control" (or whatever CAN be controlled) and yet have no viable alternatives from which to choose. One is limited by what is possible even when one is in control, unless one is God.

Anyway, here's the thing: Free will is impossible. It's a concept that makes no sense. Look at it this way: If the laws of physics apply to the world, they are deterministic on the gross level and random on the subatomic level. Neither determinism nor randomness seem to support free will because there obviously can be no free will in a deterministic world. However, suppose determinism did not apply, and the world were randomized. What use would free will be in a world where the predictions determinism allows could not be relied upon?
