Does free will exist? Are free will and destiny mutually exclusive, or can both things be true at the same time?
Maybe "awareness" or "consciousness" is just an evolved thought process that helps our slightly-improved monkey brains function without seeking self-destruction, which is inevitable.
This is an absurd concept to the rational mind -- to struggle for survival when death is inevitable -- so we need to "believe" in free will so that our species will continue.
