Freewill is based on thoughts and thoughts are based on knowledge that we've already obtained. Does that mean, as we grow and experience more, we gain more freewill?

If a thought starts with a chemical reaction in the brain, leading to electrical signals transmitting over billions of neurons, isn't this predetermined?

Congratulations me - you've successfully managed to confuse yourself. Have a lolly.

Thanks.
