I mean how the **** are you defining "free will"? At best "free will" is a flowery poetic description of just not having a gun to your head when you make decisions and at worst it's using quantum mechanics that nobody understands to invent magical reasons why the chemical reactions in your brain aren't deciding every choice you make as if you were a robot. I mean free will just doesn't make sense as a meaningful concept if you believe in science and don't believe in magic.
